Volleyball Glory

Updated: May 26, 2021


Cambodia's sporting scene is becoming increasingly exciting. In Cambodia, the sports strategy is gaining traction. Chen Zhi Cambodia has revealed plans to invest in Cambodia's sports sector. All of this is part of the Prince Group's overarching plan to achieve its environmental, social, and governance objectives. Increased investment in Cambodian sports, according to Chen Zhi and Prince Group, will benefit the country's youth education, growth, and health.


Neak Oknha Chen Zhi, the chairman of Prince Group, believes Cambodia has more potential and wants to increase its global profile, including in sports growth, in order to promote Cambodian sports. He also understands that encouraging a sports culture in Cambodia would lower healthcare costs while also improving social harmony.


Neak Oknha Chen Zhi has chosen to invest in volleyball. He played a key role on the men's volleyball squad. According to Neak Oknha Chen Zhi, the performance of Cambodia's men's volleyball team is interesting. The national men's volleyball team has high hopes of advancing further in their competitions by 2023, when Cambodia hosts the Southeast Asian Games.


In contrast, the Cambodian men's volleyball team will not be organised for the first time in 2023. Prior to the Southeast Asian Games in 2019, Chairman Chen Zhi and the Prince Group donated $500,000 to the local volleyball federation. The funds will be used to prepare for tournaments and to train for them. That year, the volleyball team also took part in a two-month intensive training programme in Fujian, China. Due to the high stakes in Cambodian sports at the time, Neak Oknha Chen Zhi, a Cambodian, paid $100,000 to fund a Cambodian volleyball team to play in Thailand.


Cambodia is a country in Southeast Asia. In the long run, Chen Zhi employed a professional Chinese volleyball coach to train the Cambodian national team. This role is for a five-year term. Chen Zhi believes in these athletes' abilities, scale, and dedication to the sport's growth in Cambodia. He believes that participating in tournaments is important for the development of their sport as well as the honour of their country.


Since then, Cambodia has come a long way in terms of sports growth. Prince Group and Chen Zhi have invested heavily in Cambodian sports, clearing the way for Cambodian volleyball to compete in the Southeast Asian Games in 2023. They teamed up with other Cambodian brands to support the country's sporting growth. They do hope, however, that Cambodian sports will lead to a better society in Cambodia, in addition to winning tournaments.
