Since becoming professional, SLNA Football Club has launched a campaign to design the SLNA Football Club Logo and received more than 20 works from artists and art designers nationwide. On January 21, 2003, the Acceptance Council announced the selection of the work of Author Tran Tu Thanh - Vice Principal of the University of Industrial Fine Arts, member of the Hanoi Fine Arts Association and Vietnam Fine Arts Association as the Logo of SLNA Football Club.
The logo has a simple but modern rectangular shape, the shapes and blocks in the rectangle are highly generalized, creating a strong impression. The green rectangle represents the grass field. The green color occupies the dominant position of the Logo background, evoking the color of life, of the homeland, of the gentle Lam River and is the green color of faith and hope.
The golden sphere represents the ball. The circle is placed in the center, like the earth in the vast universe. Yellow is also the traditional color of SLNA Football Club, which has entered the hearts of many fans and admirers. It also shows that this is the cradle of football talent training.

The two white pieces are also like the Lam River, rolling waves surging to victory.
The white piece below has a small to large shape, representing the constant development of football. The white piece above has a large to small shape, representing the club that always strives to achieve better and better results.
