General Luong Tam Quang, Minister of Public Security, presented the First Class Labor Medal to the Hanoi Police Club. This award recognizes the contributions of many generations of players, coaches and leaders to People's Public Security sports, Capital football and Vietnamese football.
Before the award ceremony, General Secretary and President To Lam visited an exhibition about the 70-year history of the team. In his speech, he emphasized the significance of the club's birth in 1956, just two years after the capital was liberated. He appreciated the contributions of generations of players and the enduring affection of fans for the team.
The General Secretary emphasized that the fans' attachment, even when the team had to stop operating, has become the driving force for the club to restore and develop strongly as it is today. He hopes the team continues to preserve its identity, honor and tradition, while improving its achievements and contributing more to Vietnamese football.

Hanoi Police Club, founded on October 10, 1956, soon became a notable name in Northern football. The team won the Northern division three times in 1957, 1964 and 1969, before winning the national championship in 1984. In 1999, the club made its mark with the Dunhill Cup title. For decades, Hanoi Police have been known not only for their achievements but also for their technical and flashy playing style, associated with the capital's football image.
A difficult period came to the club when it had to stop operating, but the big turning point came in 2023 when the team was restored and returned to the V-League with the name Hanoi Police. In their first season back, the team won the national championship. In particular, under the leadership of coach Alexandre Polking, the team was crowned in the 2025-2026 season with 64 points and consecutively won the National Super Cup in 2025 and 2026.
Recently, the club made a historic mark when defeating Ho Chi Minh City CA with a score of 5-0 at Hang Day Stadium, setting a record for the Vietnam Super Cup match. In the regional arena, Hanoi Police also won runner-up in the 2024-2025 Southeast Asian Club Cup. Another important milestone is that the club became the first Vietnamese team to win the right to participate in the AFC Champions League Elite group stage, the most prestigious club-level tournament in Asia.
At the celebration, the General Secretary also shared about the future of the club, saying that the Ministry of Public Security has an investment strategy for youth training and building facilities.
