Although only recently introduced to Vietnam, pickleball has rapidly gained popularity, becoming a beloved sport among many. Numerous well-organized tournaments have been held, showcasing not only young and talented athletes who leave a lasting impression on fans but also the indispensable presence of quality products and trusted brand partners.
On January 13, 2025, Zocker officially announced a strategic partnership with two of Vietnam’s top Pickleball athletes: Trương Vinh Hiển and Sophia Huỳnh Trần Ngọc Nhi. These two outstanding players dominated several prestigious Pickleball tournaments throughout 2024. This collaboration with Zocker – one of Vietnam’s leading sports brands – is expected to elevate the growth of Pickleball in Vietnam to new heights.
Trương Vinh Hiển is recognized as one of the most outstanding Pickleball athletes in Vietnam today, making his mark at numerous tournaments both domestically and internationally. Known for his sharp offensive play and intelligent strategies, Vinh Hiển has earned a reputation as a top-tier “trophy hunter” wherever he competes. He serves not only as a driving force for many fellow Pickleball players but also as a source of inspiration in building and growing the Pickleball community in Vietnam.
Sophia Huỳnh Trần Ngọc Nhi is a prominent female Pickleball player who has made a name for herself on the competitive stage and is a true pride of Vietnamese sports. She is known for her swift, precise playing style and unwavering determination in every match. Like Vinh Hiển, Sophia plays an active role in promoting Pickleball in Vietnam, inspiring many young people to discover, fall in love with, and regularly train in this sport.
At the recent international PPA Tour Australia – Vietnam Open 2024, Vinh Hiển and Sophia teamed up to win the gold medal in the mixed doubles category. Individually, Hiển claimed a remarkable silver medal in the men’s professional singles, while Sophia also secured a gold medal in the women’s doubles event. Together, they are not only two of Vietnam’s leading Pickleball athletes but also powerful sources of inspiration for the younger generation of sports enthusiasts.
To pave the way for greater achievements in 2025, Trương Vinh Hiển and Sophia Huỳnh Trần Ngọc Nhi have officially become brand ambassadors for Zocker’s professional Pickleball balls.
Why did Hiển and Nhi choose Zocker among countless brands?
Because quality speaks for itself.
Zocker Five Star is a tournament-grade Pickleball that meets USAPA (USA Pickleball Association) standards. It is the only Vietnamese-made ball used at the Djoy Cup — part of the international Pickleball World Ranking system — held in October 2024. As Vietnam’s top Pickleball athletes, Hiển and Nhi had the opportunity to experience Zocker balls firsthand during the tournament. From durability and bounce to on-court stability, every aspect of the ball gave them complete confidence, meeting even the most demanding technical standards.

Trust and Long-Term Commitment
What truly sets Zocker apart is its unwavering professionalism and long-term dedication — demonstrated through every action and initiative. These are the qualities that have earned the absolute trust of Hiển and Nhi, who are proud to represent a brand that shares their vision and believes in sustained partnership.
