If you were a student athlete five years ago, now you are a professional athlete.
Yongin Samsung Life Bloomings will hold the ‘2023 Dreams Come True Camp’ (hereinafter referred to as Dream Camp) at the Samsung Training Center (STC) and Everland for three days from the 29th (Mon) to the 31st (Wed). Due to COVID-19, it was held for the first time in 4 years since 2019.
Professional players belonging to Samsung Life Insurance and student players from Bundang Business High School, Sookmyung Girls’ High School, and Hyosung Girls’ High School will train together. After eating, we talk. The gap between professional players and student players can be narrowed. That is the core meaning of the Samsung Life Insurance Dream Camp.
The camp has been held since 2017. It was held once a year until 2019. However, it was not held from 2020 to 2022, the time of Corona 19. And resurrected after 4 years.
A dream camp with a long history. As a student athlete and Samsung Life Insurance player, there must have been someone who experienced all of the dream camps. After asking questions (?), I found the target. Such is the case with Yang Ji-won (176cm, F), who joined Samsung Life Insurance at the 2022-2023 WKBL Freshman Selection.
Yang Ji-won visited the Samsung Life Insurance Dream Camp as a student athlete for two years from his sophomore year at Bundang Business High School. And he became a member of the Samsung Life Insurance Dream Camp for the first time as a professional player.
Yang Ji-won said, “There were a lot of good memories, and there were also a lot of fun memories. He was in such a good mood. So I also thought, ‘Pro is a fun place.’ (Laughter) To be precise, I think I thought ‘Pro is a good place.’” He looked back on his student days.
Yang Ji-won, who visited the Samsung Life Camp as a student, became a Samsung Life player from the 2022-2023 season. He was not an ordinary person with Samsung Life Insurance. Yang Ji-won also said, “I found a dream camp as a student athlete, and he wrote, ‘I want to go to Samsung Life Insurance’ even when he was doing an assignment as a college student. And when he was selected for Samsung Life Insurance, he thought, “It must be fate.” He thought of his relationship with Samsung Life Insurance differently.
However, there is a difference. In the past, if you looked at Samsung Life players as seniors, now you have become seniors of student players. Yang Ji-won took the position of giving advice. “I want to work hard, but not burden myself. I hope you enjoy this moment,” he said sincerely to the young players.
After that, he said, “I think about it too much when I was a student. Especially, since he’s in this position after becoming a professional player, he’s given a lot of thought. I want to do better than now, and I want to remain as a good senior (to the student athletes who participated in the camp).”토토사이트
Lastly, “He injured his knee cartilage during the season. His rehabilitation was abrupt. It was a great regret. And from this week, I joined the team training. I made my body better than in his debut season, so I want to show myself as a player next season.” As both student players and professional players felt at the camp, the desire to do well seemed to grow.
