Korean volleyball, which has been disgraced in international competitions, will play again with the appointment of a new head coach. It is expected that the national men’s and women’s volleyball team will select a leader through a public offering next month.
According to the Korea Volleyball Association (KVA) on the 18th, the association plans to recruit male and female national team coaches in February.
The party plans to select candidates through a public offering for about four weeks before confirming the new leader through a performance improvement committee. Basically, it plans to push for a two to three-year long-term contract, but it has left open the possibility of replacing them if their performance is poor after going through a verification process in the middle.
A KVA source said, “Both domestic and foreign leaders are eligible. All possibilities are open,” adding, “We will select a new leader through a transparent process.”
The association plans to find the best head coach with all possibilities, not only full-time but also concurrent leaders of clubs and national teams.
Korean men’s and women’s volleyball recently suffered the worst slump on the international stage and bowed their heads.
The men’s volleyball team, led by head coach Lim Do-heon, ranked seventh after struggling, including being caught by India and Pakistan at the Hangzhou Asian Games last year.
The women’s national volleyball team, where Cesar Hernandez took the helm, was also sluggish.
Last year, it suffered a humiliating loss in the Volleyball Nations League (VNL) for the second consecutive year, and it ended up in fifth place after a rough-and-ready battle, losing to Vietnam at the Asian Games. In particular, the women’s national team, which used to make it to the semifinals of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, also failed to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics, leaving a deep regret.
In the end, the association announced the resignation of the head coaches of the men’s and women’s national teams in October last year with an apology for their poor performance on the international stage. 랭크카지노주소
KVA, which held a public hearing in November last year and heard voices about improving the national team’s performance, appointed Roh Jin-soo and Kim Cheol-yong, respectively, on the 19th of last month to start a new edition.
KVA, which is scheduled to appoint a new head coach through a public contest in February, plans to draw a mid- to long-term blueprint with the aim of participating in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics and 2032 Brisbane Olympics.
