Shinchang Nuri FC is part of an after-school soccer class project for elementary school students living in Sinchang-myeon, Asan-si, in connection with Soonchunhyang University. It was created to provide students with opportunities for sports activities and to support children from multicultural families to play soccer with their peers and grow healthy without difficulties such as social maladjustment and alienation.
The soccer clinic, hosted by Asan, Chungcheongnam-do, was designed to help children learn about soccer through meetings with players and make precious memories with fun soccer games. On this day, Dojin Jung and Jung Yi-seo were present as daily teachers.
Under the guidance of the two players, the students learned basic soccer skills by warming up, passing, ball control, and dribbling training. Despite the hot weather, participating children enthusiastically participated in the clinic, creating a more special time.
After the training was over, a simple mini-game was played and souvenirs such as writing equipment sets were delivered. The program was then concluded with a group photo shoot and a fan signing event.
Currently, Chungnam Asan is supporting Shinchang Nuri FC not only for professional players' soccer guidance, but also various training supplies including uniforms and soccer tickets to realize sports welfare, overcome social and cultural conflicts, and improve adaptability.
It was a meaningful time for Jung Yi-seo, who served as the daily leader of the soccer clinic. Even if the conversation didn't work, I could feel that I became one again through sports. I hope that multicultural children and non-multicultural children will be combined into sports to create a social atmosphere where everyone is respected and without discrimination" expressed his feelings.
Meanwhile, Chungnam Asan will play six consecutive home games starting with the match against Busan in the 27th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2024' at Yi Sun-shin Stadium at 7 p.m. on the 18th and the match against Cheonan on September 24.
