The 2023/24 National Professional Football Season was the first to align the competition schedule synchronously with continental and global standards (commencing in the autumn of the previous year and concluding in the summer of the following year). This historic step, driven by the urgent need to develop our national football landscape, has brought numerous benefits to Vietnamese clubs and national teams alike.

Swiftly adapting to these changes, VPF and the clubs successfully completed the 2023/24 season, leaving a positive mark through their organizational efforts and the enhancement of the league’s professional quality.

The 2023/24 season was remarkable not only for the pivotal change in competition schedule but also for the exciting, competitive nature of the tournaments. The season witnessed high levels of competition and enduring rivalries from the opening rounds to the finals. A notable highlight was the introduction and increasing familiarity of VAR (Video Assistant Referee) technology, ensuring fair and accurate matches. This season marked the first time that every match in the Night Wolf V.League 1-2023/24 included VAR, setting the stage for widespread implementation in the upcoming 2024/25 national championship season. Additionally, VAR was initially used in selected matches and crucial rounds of the Casper National Cup 2023/24 and the season’s playoffs, further enhancing the overall quality and integrity of the competitions.

The V.League Awards 2023/24 was organized as a football celebration to honor outstanding teams and individuals after a season of dedicated effort. As another season passes, it accumulates more experiences that serve as preparation towards achieving new successful goals in the upcoming seasons.
