Leading U11 SLNA in this tournament is head coach Pham Duc Anh, former goalkeeper of U16 Vietnam and SLNA's first team in the past. Assisting head coach Pham Duc Anh is assistant Phan Tien Hoai, "captain" of U13 SLNA at the 2020 National U13 Finals, a tournament in which U13 SLNA, as the host team, successfully defended the championship title. In addition, there is the assistance of head of delegation Nguyen Ngoc Anh.

If they overcome U11 Phu Yen in the final match which will take place at 3:30 p.m. on October 30, U11 SLNA will win the championship for the fourth consecutive time in the tournament for children of Vietnamese football. In the history of the tournament, no team has done that. This is also the motivation for coach Pham Duc Anh and his team in the upcoming match.

Head of the delegation Nguyen Ngoc Anh said: "SLNA U11 will have to face many difficulties when the opponent in the final match is Phu Yen U11, with enthusiastic cheers from a large number of home fans. Honestly speaking, winning or losing in football depends largely on luck. We can only try our best, the final result is unpredictable."
