The reason Jang Yoon-chang runs to protect Songsan High School's volleyball team
“It is heartbreaking that the only high school volleyball team in a city with a population of 1 million is disappearing. Let’s all join hands, alumni and local residents, to save Songsan High School’s volleyball team.”
Professor Jang Yoon-chang (64), who was known as “Dolphin” during his days as a player, said this while attending a rally opposing the disbandment of Songsan High School’s volleyball team held at Songsan Middle School’s gymnasium in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province on the 15th. Professor
Jang, a graduate of Inchang High School in Seoul, took the lead in saving Songsan High School’s volleyball team because he himself had experience transferring schools because there was no high school volleyball team in the area.
Professor Jang was a famous volleyball player at Songsan Middle School, but he transferred to Inchang Middle School just before graduation to transfer to Inchang High School.
In addition to Songsan Middle School, Namyang Elementary School in Hwaseong is
also a school that cannot be left out when discussing prestigious volleyball schools. In addition, Hwaseong City Hall is considered the strongest team in the men's division of the professional league.
However, due to criticism that there was no high school team and thus lack of connectivity, Songsan High School's volleyball team opened in 2009. At that time, Hwaseong City, Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, and Hwaseong Osan Office of Education provided about 2 billion won to help build a volleyball team-specific gymnasium and dormitory. This is the case of Hwang Taek-ui (28, Armed Forces Athletic Corps), a starting setter for the national team, graduating from Namyang Elementary School, Songsan Middle School, and Songsan High School in that order.
The first professional volleyball player from Songsan High School is Jeong Dong-geun (29, KB Insurance).
Jeong Dong-geun was selected 6th overall by Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance in the 2015-2016 rookie draft.
Since then, up until last season, a total of 15 Songsan High School graduates have become professional volleyball players through the rookie draft. During the same period, only one school, Namsang High School (18), produced more rookie draftees than Songsan High School .
However, rumors have been circulating in the volleyball world since the end of last year that Songsan High School is considering disbanding the team.
And on the 2nd, Songsan High School Principal Won Seong-il announced at a meeting of parents of the volleyball team that "we will not be recruiting new students starting next year," and the disbandment of the volleyball team became a reality.
Songsan High School has also recommended transfers to current volleyball team members
. The number of Songsan High School volleyball team members, which started with 14 at the beginning of the new school year, has now decreased to 10.
The interpretation that the school is having a hard time running the volleyball club due to the conflict between the former coach A (52), a former star player, and the school corporation is gaining traction in the volleyball world. It seems that
only the children are being harmed by the adults’ fight.
If Songsan High School disbands the volleyball club, the CBS Cup, which will be held in Samcheok, Gangwon Province from the 22nd, will be the last stage in the team’s history.
Kim Dal-ho (44), the current coach of Songsan High School, said, “The players are preparing more diligently and with more concentration because they know that it could be their last.”
When Songsan High School founded its volleyball team in 2009, it emphasized, “We will foster warm-hearted talents with both intelligence, virtue, and physical strength.”
In fact, in just 15 years since its founding, it has established itself as one of the nation’s most prestigious volleyball schools.
Songsan High School’s motto is, “Let’s become hard-working people. Let’s become honest people. Let’s become loving people.” The
volleyball players of this school have been diligent and sincere with their love for volleyball as they begin the second semester (the 16th), but their hearts are bound to be filled with more worry than passion.
If Songsan High School makes the final decision to disband its volleyball team, the number of high school boys’ volleyball teams will be reduced to 21.
Below is a resolution urging the withdrawal of the decision to disband Songsan High School’s volleyball team.
Songsan High School has laid the foundation for the growth of a prestigious volleyball city through the fostering of elementary, middle, and high school volleyball teams in Hwaseong City, and has sought continuous development through systematic fostering of volleyball teams with the solid financial support of Hwaseong City Sports Council.
However, the principal and administrative director of Songsan High School declared the disbandment of the school’s sports teams, citing problems with the previous coach’s management. Due to the decision to disband Songsan High School’s volleyball team, the volleyball team fostering system that had been connected to Namyang Elementary School, Songsan Middle School, Songsan High School, and Hwaseong City Hall Volleyball Team collapsed in an instant, causing great confusion and making it difficult to determine the future direction of fostering volleyball talent.
Despite being deprived of quality training opportunities due to frequent conflicts and lack of communication between the school and the foundation, the players of Songsan High School’s volleyball team have continuously worked for the honor of the school and the local community, and we express indescribable anger and strong regret over the unilateral and unfair disbanding of the volleyball team.
Furthermore, even as the decision to disband the volleyball club led to the transfer of some players, causing a huge loss in Hwaseong City, including an outflow of volleyball talent to other cities, Songsan High School is stubbornly sticking to its existing position and ignoring the volleyball club players who are training hard to compete in the upcoming competition.
School sports teams are the birthplace of future sports talent. Therefore, the decision to disband Songsan High School’s volleyball team is not only a matter of maintaining the volleyball team in local schools, but also a complete cessation of the systematic regional sports team development system, and is no different from evading the educational institution’s responsibility to develop sports talent.
Disbanding the volleyball team without a proper justification or clear solution can never be the right answer, and the top priority is to reform the organizational culture that is not tainted by various irregularities or conflicts of interest.
Therefore, we express deep concern and regret over the unilateral decision to disband Songsan High School’s volleyball team, and strongly urge the following for the maintenance of the volleyball team and continuous player development.
First, we strongly urge the complete withdrawal of the unilateral decision to disband the volleyball team without considering the players' position!
First, we strongly urge the establishment of normalization measures through restoration of trust between Songsan High School and the members of the volleyball team and cultivation of leadership capabilities! 파워볼사이트
