Residents in Hung Thi (Lac Thuy district) actively engage in community-based sport events and competitions.

A campaign, titled "All people exercise following the example of President Ho Chi Minh", has been widely implemented in association with initiatives to build a cultural lifestyle and new-style rural areas.

In Tan Vinh – a central commune in Luong Son district, every hamlet now boasts a training ground, adequately meeting the daily needs of the community.

Local resident Hoang Thi Su from Dong Chui hamlet said: "Since our training ground was upgraded and outdoor equipment installed, we have more options for regular exercise. Coming to the area, we enjoy chatting, socialising, and cheering for volleyball, badminton, and shuttlecock teams, which boosts our spirits and optimism."

According to the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, as of the end of 2023, Hoa Binh had over 2,800 sports facilities available for various activities, including 92 training and competition halls, 53 swimming pools, and 2,714 outdoor training fields. Notably, the provincial stadium has received an investment of 13.3 billion VND (541,422 USD) for upgrade to host national and provincial sports events, while the provincial swimming pool has been renovated with 7.2 billion VND to improve auxiliary facilities for local competitions and public use.
