Chung Chang-hoon (60), chairman of the Korea Swimming Federation, has won a second term in the 29th presidential election of the Korea Swimming Federation.

At the 29th presidential election of the Korea Swimming Federation held at the Muse Live Hall in the Olympic Park in Songpa-gu, Seoul from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the 9th, 141 out of 187 electors voted, winning 86 out of 140 valid votes, beating Choi Soon-mo (67, president of the Korea Parking Industry Association), who received 54 votes.

Chung, a former chairman of the Gyeonggi Swimming Federation, will continue his second term in office after the 28th chairman in 2021. Chairman Chung, who is also an executive member of the Asian Swimming Federation, will serve as the head of the Korean Swimming Federation from January 2025 to four years, including Singapore in 2025, Budapest in 2027, the Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games in 2026, and the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.




After receiving the certificate of election, Chairman Chung was able to re-elect thanks to athletes, leaders, and swimmers," he said, expressing his appreciation. "The person who supported me is a swimmer, and the person who opposed me is a swimmer. Now that the election is over, let's unite as one without your side or mine to create a better swimming ecosystem together." "We will work harder to support elite athletes and hobbyists over the next four years." We will secure more budgets, recruit foreign leaders and help the `Golden Generation' win more Olympic medals while focusing solely on training in the best possible environment"I promised. "The Federation is a support agency. As we have done for the past four years, our role is not to reign, but to take good care of the players, leaders, and members. I will do my best to make the swimming world twice as good as it is now with good athletes and good leaders"I vowed.
