At 4 p.m. on the 4th, when all classes at Goyang Gyeonggi Video Science High School were over, the voices of the women’s volleyball team “Attack,” shouting, “Hit your chance hard” and “Watch out for the back defense,” rang out in the gym. It was a match between the second-year players born in 2007. The ball passed by left (Friday) Seo-hyun with his specialty spike passed through the hand of center (Min) Kyu-bin, who tried to block, hit (Kim) Sarang’s arm and fell off the court. Seo-hyun’s team members, who scored, gathered in a circle and raised their morale, shouting, “Attack, let’s win.”
Although all major competitions are over this year, athletes participating in the practice were quite serious. Kyubin, who is 172 centimeters tall, blocked his friend (Jo) Yoon-seo from attacking him and provoked the opponent with a gesture meant to be smaller than him, with Yoon-seo smiling in vain. Kyu-bin, who has been exercising since last year at the recommendation of his physical education teacher, returned from the volleyball team due to torn ligament in his knee and opposition from his parents. “I rested because my parents told me to study, but I felt depressed because I didn’t play volleyball. Seeing him like that, I recommended him again,” he said.
The players encouraged each other and strengthened teamwork. When timid first grader (Kim) Tae-hee dropped her head with drooping shoulders after failing to attack, second grader (Former) Robin immediately approached and urged them to “Don’t rush because you are doing well enough.” However, cool-headed ace Seo-hyun instilled tension by saying, “Focus.”
Seohyun majored in architecture, but is aiming to become a physical education teacher. She changed her career path after playing volleyball for two years. “I learned from exercise that if you work hard, you can achieve anything. I want to become a teacher who teaches students excellently without hurting them,” Seohyun said. “I am not nervous about presenting in class because I have gained a lot of confidence. I was not interested in relationships, but I became close to my friends while exercising.”
Captain Sarang-i cited physical strength as the secret to maintaining his top-ranked performance. “I was tired at first because it was my first time exercising properly, but after about six months, I felt that my physical strength and athletic ability improved,” he said. “When you play volleyball, you can focus on your exercise and then focus on your studies. I was able to persuade my parents with the idea that I have to focus on both volleyball and academic performance.”
The volleyball team of Gyeonggi Video Science High School, which was formed last year through the Korea Sports Association’s after-school sports club program, is a new club, but with the passion of the players, it achieved its second consecutive victory in the high school girls’ team at the school sports club of the Gyeonggi Provincial Superintendent of Education in September. Next year, it aims to win a prize in a national competition that has stopped at the quarterfinals this year.
Eom Wan-yong (35), a lecturer from professional volleyball Libero, said, “It’s my first time 메이저사이트 playing volleyball, so I learned skills quickly because I didn’t have a bad habit,” adding, “Even my parents like it when the students who were quiet become bright and gain confidence.” “As school club programs become active, not only boys but also girls are actively exercising,” he said.
