Shooting is one of Vietnam’s key sports, receiving investment with a focus on continental and world competitions. This championship is considered an important opportunity for the Vietnam Shooting Team to further pursue its performance targets as well as development strategies for 2025.
The Vietnam team competes at the 2025 Asian Shooting Championship with 20 shooters, participating in both junior and senior categories. Among them are three standout athletes: Trịnh Thu Vinh, Lê Thị Mộng Tuyền, and Phạm Quang Huy.
In the upcoming competition days, Vietnam Shooting still has many chances to secure valuable medals, as several of its strong events remain.
According to the schedule, the championship will conclude on August 30. Athletes who have completed their events will return to Vietnam on August 26, 27, and 30, respectively.
