Yeoncheon Miracle, an independent league founded in 2015 with the support of Yeoncheon-gun, has provided full training and room and board expenses to the final selected players due to the expansion of support since last year, providing an opportunity for those who are economically challenged to make a comeback.
Players who are eligible to join will be eligible for ① former professional players, ② high school and college amateur players (including prospective graduates and dropouts), ③ from domestic and foreign independent leagues and overseas leagues, and ④ players who wish to apply for joining will be available until October 14 on the official website of Yeoncheon Miracle.
Among the applicants, 20 outstanding players will be selected through practical tests and interviews for each position, and the players selected through this tryout will participate in the team's final training.
Yeoncheon coach Kim In-sik said, `I've seen a lot of outstanding players who graduated from high school and college and were not selected for the rookie draft give up baseball for financial reasons. I want to continue to find good players based on a stable environment and continue to produce players like Son Ho-young and Hwang Young-mook next season."
Yeoncheon took the throne of the independent league for the third consecutive year this season, with pitchers Lee Hyun-min (kt Wiz) and Park Si-on (KIA Tigers) entering the KBO League and winning the regular season and championship game in the 『2024 Independent Baseball Team Gyeonggi-do League』.
