Volleyball beauty Kim Hue goes to Thailand to play for hire
The beautiful middle blocker will compete in the Thai championship next season with a high salary and good treatment. If there are no sudden changes, the former captain of the Vietnamese team, who is currently on the roster of the leading team, the Industrial and Commercial Bank, will compete in the 2016 Thai championship for Danish Nongrua. The 33-year-old beauty of Vietnamese volleyball caught the eye of the Thai club's coaching staff when she and the banking team went to participate in the Thai Royal Cup. There, Kim Hue had an excellent performance, helping her team win the runner-up position.

After a long period of negotiation with Hue personally, as well as the home team, the Industrial and Commercial Bank, Danish Nongrua reached an agreement to acquire the top middle blocker in Southeast Asia for next season. Kim Hue's income is not less than Ngoc Hoa's income at the Bangkok Glass Club, about 3,000 USD per month, not including bonuses and support for all accommodation and travel expenses.
Thus, in the 2016 Thai national tournament, there are two representatives of Vietnamese volleyball, the excellent middle blocker pair of the former Vietnamese volleyball team Kim Hue - Ngoc Hoa. However, they will not play together but will face each other at least two home and away matches in the colors of Bangkok Glass and Danish Nongrua. The Thai championship consists of 8 clubs, playing a round-robin of two matches at home and away to determine the rankings.
Due to the different methods and timing of the tournaments in the two countries, like Ngoc Hoa, Kim Hue can still play for both the Industrial and Commercial Bank and Danish Nongrua. Not long ago, Kim Hue also received an invitation from Ayutthaya Club to play for hire in the 2015 tournament. The team even sent a letter to the Vietnam Volleyball Federation and the Vietnam Industrial and Commercial Bank, inviting Hue to come for a health check and to negotiate a contract. However, at the last minute, Hue's trip abroad unexpectedly failed due to procedural problems.

Before Kim Hue, Vietnamese volleyball had 4 cases of players playing abroad for hire, including main attacker Ngo Van Kieu (Indonesia, 2007 and 2008), middle attacker Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hoa (Thailand, 2014-2015), main attacker Do Thi Minh (Thailand, 2014) and libero Nguyen Thi Kim Lien (Thailand, 2014). Of these, Ngoc Hoa was the most successful when she won third place in the national tournament and the National Super Cup with Ayutthaya in the 2014 season, won the national championship and won the Asian Women's Club Championship in the 2015 season with Bangkok Glass.
