Woori Card Woori WON Volleyball Team hosted a 'Spike your Dream' volleyball class at a total of eight schools on the 29th.
The 'Spike your Dream' volleyball class is an ESG campaign by Woori Card Volleyball Team, which supports the dreams of young people through volleyball, and is a program to expand the base of grassroots volleyball in the hometown.
Woori Card conducted a volleyball class for school sports club schools in collaboration with the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education.
The program has been in progress for the second year this year following 2023. Woori Card said "We plan to gradually expand it by utilizing the off-season every year."
Last year, 12 out of 178 schools operating volleyball sports clubs were selected. Six schools were held in August and September, respectively.

In the meantime, if you applied through the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education or targeted the school sports club's preliminary winning school in Seoul, this year's second program received a story of the school of hope through the club's SNS.
Daeilgwan Advertising, Gwangyoung High School, Sinmok Middle School, Yeongwon Middle School, Seoul Sandaedae High School, Shinmyung Middle School, Yeouido Middle School, and Seongdong Global Management High School were selected as the second program.
Among them, Daeilgwan Advertising has a special relationship with Woori Card last year. There was an invitation from Woori Card last year, and it led to the establishment of the volleyball team. Although it is a new team, it also participated in the school sports club competition and won two games.
Students who once again continued their relationship with Woori Card could not hide their nervousness at the appearance of 'signboard star' such as Kim Ji-han and Park Joon-hyuk.
On this day, the volleyball class played mini-games with the players, including one-point classes including receiving, tossing, and spike. Since then, a signing event and photo time have been held to present special memories to the children.
One student said "The players got better. I think I'll be a lifelong fan of our card. I'm going to all the games this season. I want to say thank you to the players for teaching me so well." Another student said "It's an experience that can't be easily done, but it was nice to be able to be with the players with a good opportunity. I think I will support our card more today. I hope the players don't get hurt and perform well this season."

Park Joon-hyuk also said, `I always feel it every time I come to school, but I thought I should repay you because you liked me so much and worked so hard. I was very surprised that the students did better than I thought. I hope that students will continue to enjoy volleyball in the future." "I felt that I had to work harder when I met with students ahead of the upcoming season." We ask for your support even after the opening."

In addition, the number of school sports club volleyball teams in Seoul is increasing, and the club plans to continue and expand volleyball class events to expand the base of volleyball in the hometown, and will further strengthen fan contact by linking home game visit programs as well as one-time volleyball class events."
