The Vietnam Professional Football (VPF), which runs the two professional football leagues of Vietnam, has proposed to name the national championship as V-Super League but the proposal is not approved.
VPF on February 8 asked the General Department of Sports and Physical Training and the Vietnam Football Federation (VFF) to maintain the name of the former First Division tournament as V-League 1 and change the name of the national championship from Super League into V-Super League.
VPF wishes to maintain the name League to both professional football tournaments. It explained: “Before 2011, there were only 14 professional FCs so we differentiate the names of the National Football Championship and the First Division Tournament because at that time many FCs playing in the First Division Tournament were not recognized as professional FCs.”
“At present, all 28 FCs are recognized as professional FCs so if the old names of the National Football Championship and the First Division Tournament are maintained, the ranking of FCs will not be differentiated.”
However, VFF did not agree and asked VPF to resume the old names of the National Football Championship and the First Division Tournament, meaning the V-League and the First Division Tournament.
Both VFF and the General Department of Sports and Physical Training asked VPF to observe the current regulations until the new regulations for 2012 are approved by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
