In 2025, the somewhat gloomy Korean soccer community gathered their hearts on the green and expressed a glimmer of hope.
The "2025 Footballer's Golf Tournament" was held at the Korea CC in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province on Wednesday. Hosted by the Korea Football Association, the Korea Professional Football Federation, Ulsan HD, and Pohang Steelers, the competition is sponsored by Sports Seoul, Sports Chosun, Sports Trends, Sports Dong-A, Sports World, and six daily sports media, and marks the ninth anniversary this year as a stage for the harmony of soccer players.
Starting with Chung Mong-kyu, chairman of the Korea Football Association, key figures were Shin Tae-yong, vice chairman of the Korea Football Association, Hong Myung-bo, coach of the Korean national soccer team, and Kwon Oh-gap, president of the Korea Professional Football Association. Not only leaders who play in the K-League 1, including Pohang Steelers coach Park Tae-ha, FC Seoul coach Kim Ki-dong and Gwangju FC coach Lee Jung-hyo, but also Yoon Jeong-hwan, coach of Incheon United, Seoul E-Land coach Kim Do-kyun and Suwon Samsung coach Byun Sung-hwan gathered together. Young blood, including retired Jeju SK youth advisor Koo Ja-cheol and Osan High School coach Ko Yo-han, also participated. It is a stage of friendship that brings together some 70 soccer players who are active in various forms in the soccer community.
Recently, Korean soccer has not only received stinging glances from political circles, but has also had a gloomy time due to various administrative accidents. Naturally, it also led to various conflicts among members of the soccer community.
The golf competition for soccer players was a venue for harmony and unity. Chairman Chung Mong-gyu continued his "listening" by meeting with soccer players, shaking hands and listening to them. "It would be nice if they respect and consider others. Soccer is not everyone's thing," said Kwon Oh-gap, president of the Korea Football Association. This is the most important message for the Korean soccer community. The K-League leader also voiced various opinions on various issues to further development.
Kim Byung-ji, CEO of Gangwon FC, said, "There are some teams with good performance and some teams are in crisis, so I hope we can relieve stress through this opportunity. And I will put a lot of thoughts together for the development of soccer, and I would appreciate it if you could make efforts for the development of soccer with good thoughts." 토토사이트
Yoo Seung Min, chairman of the Korea Sports Council, also attended the event. Yoo Seung Min, who is taking "integrated steps" in the sports world, is the first soccer player to appear at a golf competition as a president. Yoo, who caused a sensation in the election for the chairman of the KOC, was in the same group as Chung, who recently started his fourth term in office. Chairman Chung said, "I am grateful that Chairman Yoo Seung Min joined the soccer players' golf competition," stressing his willingness to contribute to the integration of the sports community beyond soccer. Chairman Yoo also said, "I am here because it is an athlete's event. It is an honor. If there is such an event, I would like to attend it often."
