Swimmer Kim Son of Duy Tan University won 5 medals at the National Swimming - Diving Championship


Continuing to affirm his talent and competitive performance at the 2024 National Swimming - Diving Championship, swimmer Nguyen Huu Kim Son, currently a student of Duy Tan University, brought home for the Da Nang Sports Delegation as well as added to his medal collection: 2 Gold medals, 1 Silver medal and 2 Bronze medals.

The 2024 National Swimming - Diving Championship is an annual tournament held between many provinces and cities and this year is hosted by the Vietnam Aquatic Sports Association and the Department of Culture - Sports of Da Nang. This year's season takes place from October 10 - 20, 2024 at the Hai Chau District Swimming - Diving Club, Da Nang City. This is the most important tournament in the competition system of the Vietnam Aquatic Sports Association.

Kim Son shared: "Previously, at the National Swimming Championship held in Hue at the end of March 2024, Kim Son, along with Mr. Quy Phuoc and his teammates, competed and won the Gold medal in the Men's 4x100m Freestyle Team Swimming event. In this tournament, the two brothers' understanding was even more evident in each stroke to achieve the best results. In addition, the youthfulness of Viet Tuong and the super swimming ability of Mr. Ngoc Trien increased the strength of the whole team to compete sublimely".

The time of participating in the tournament was also when Kim Son was taking the final exam at Duy Tan University. However, the seniors in the Da Nang Sports delegation and the teachers at Duy Tan University all provided maximum support for Kim Son to complete both his studies and competitions well.

"One of the advantages is that this tournament is held in Da Nang - the city where I live and study, so I don't have to waste time traveling. I also have more time to practice swimming, so very confident when participating in the competition. I am quite satisfied with the results of myself and my teammates. What I am most happy about is that when participating in this tournament, MSc. Dang Thien Tam - lecturer of the School of Economics & Business (SBE), Duy Tan University and many classmates came to cheer for me. The feeling is really happy and hard to describe, I feel like I have been given more motivation to compete best in this tournament as well as to try harder in the following seasons", Kim Son excitedly said. 

With a determined competitive spirit and serious study efforts at school, Nguyen Huu Kim Son has proven his ability to balance between his sports career and his studies. Kim Son's achievements are not only a source of personal pride, but also contribute to helping the Da Nang Sports Delegation achieve more achievements in many important sports tournaments over the past years.
