"It's true that there are too many games."

Following the women's Heungkuk Life Insurance manager Avonja, Hyundai Capital Blanc, the men's team manager, also voiced that the V-League schedule was too tight. It's not another team, it's the manager's opinion of the leading teams, so we can't just let it go. However, it is a dilemma because the number of players should be secured in the professional world.

Hyundai Capital won the set scooter 3-0 in the third round match against KB Insurance in the 2024-2025 Dodram V-League at Ansan Sangnoksu Gymnasium on the 14th. a five-point lead.

However, Blanc was more worried than happy about winning. It was because of the 'schedule of hell'. Hyundai Capital has been on a tough journey this month. After the Korean Air match on the 3rd, he took two days off and played the KB Insurance match on the 6th. After that, he was given a four-day break until the Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance match on the 11th, but he had to play against KB Insurance again in three days.

After that, the remaining December is 'Wed-Sat-Sat-Sat' schedule. It's a game after two days off, and a game after three days off. At least three days of rest must be given to recover and train, but two days are too tight. Blanc said "It's hard to say it over and over again. However, it is true that there are too many matches in the sixth round of the V League. First of all, I know nothing will change this season, so as a leader, I need to control the amount of training of the players and make sure they don't get injured. However, he said, "I hope that the number of games will be reconsidered by someone."

Director Avonja of Heungkuk Life had already spoken out once. In the game against GS Caltex, Silva and Weiler, the foreign players of the opposing team, were taken out at once due to injuries. "There are too many games. It should be reduced to four rounds. Or we need to increase the game period." The opinion was that the short time between the game and the game would slow the players' recovery and increase their dependence on key players as they did not have time to raise young players, increasing the probability of injury. Kim Yeon-koung also agreed with director Avonja's opinion.

That's reasonable. Injuries to players are a fatal blow to the team and the league. Even so, if injuries are caused by unexpected collisions and accidents during the game, leaders and players will be frustrated if they are injured due to poor physical strength.

Even so, it is difficult for professionals to be operated by catering to both coaches and players. Reducing 36 games to 24 is a huge loss in the reality of the Korean professional league, which operates the club for promotional purposes. There are players who receive an annual salary of more than 800 million won for the women's team and 1 billion won for the men's team. Some say that it is a sound of fullness to reduce the number of games while receiving such an astronomical salary. It also compares to other events. Baseball and basketball have a lot of back-to-back schedules and more physical exhaustion in daily games, but volleyball should not be the only thing that is difficult.

What do Hyundai Capital players think about the schedule of 'Woo-to-Woo-to'. Captain Heo Soo-bong said "I don't feel much that it's hard to take two days off, maybe because I'm young. If you play two games a week, time flies so fast. Rather, I think it's not bad.'

Veteran Choi Min-ho laughed, saying "You're not going to feel it if you're a young Subong, but I'm a little..." And soon "The director is as considerate as possible. Of course, there is fatigue, but after playing the league for more than 10 years, I have adapted. I think it's right for the players to do their best in the given situation."
