"I will share teachers' passion for school sports." (Welcome to Education Minister Lee Ju-ho)

The passion and efforts of teachers poured out of the educational field to develop students' bodies and minds in a healthy way have returned to precious fruits. The "2024 School Sports Awards", which boasts the highest authority in the field of school sports, was awarded the highest honor to teachers who have devoted themselves to school and students who have devoted themselves to sports activities this year.

A total of 15 awards (13 individuals and 2 groups) were presented at the '2024 School Sports Awards' held at the Korea Press Center in Taepyeong-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 6th. The School Sports Awards are hosted by the Ministry of Education and 17 metropolitan and provincial offices of education, co-hosted by the School Sports Promotion Association and Sports Chosun, and sponsored by the Korea Football Association, SK Telecom and the Korea Racing Authority.



The award ceremony was divided into five categories: revitalization of school sports, revitalization of school sports clubs, revitalization of the school sports department, revitalization of special sports education, and revitalization of girls' soccer, and selected teachers and schools that have achieved outstanding results this year.

The 'School Sports Awards' was established by the Ministry of Education and Sports Chosun in 2016 to emphasize the importance of school sports leading to healthy physical and mental growth of students and to encourage teachers who devote themselves to physical education guidance in front-line educational fields. The offline awards ceremony was not held for three years due to the aftermath of the Corona pandemic (2019-2020) and the Itaewon disaster (2022), but it was held again after four years last year, drawing great response from the education community.
