HÀ NỘI — The National Enterprises’ Football Championship, the VCCI Cup 2018, will kick off on June 23 in Hà Nội.

The event is set to feature 32 amateur football teams from across the country.

The teams, representatives from enterprises nationwide, will be divided into two regions: the North (16 teams) and the South (16 teams).

The seven-a-side tournament will feature a qualifying round, before the top two teams from the two regions will compete for the VCCI Cup in Hà Nội.

The champions will walk away with VNĐ30 million (US$1,320), while the runners-up will receive VNĐ20 million ($880).

The event aims to bolster business linkages and create opportunities for exchanges between organisations, companies and entrepreneurs while looking to mark the 55th anniversary of founding the VCCI and Vietnamese Entrepreneurs’ Day (October 13).

The tournament will run until October 13. — VNS
