Ahead of the new season, many middle and high school teams are in the midst of strengthening their strength through Stove League in each region.

High school boys and girls are conducting practice games that combine winter training in Gyeongju and Jeju Island in North Gyeongsang Province, and high school girls are checking the skills they have honed throughout the winter in Sacheon, South Gyeongsang Province.

This season, with the first competition of the season scheduled in Haenam in March, in the jump ball, we met the players who are expected to be active in each school in the south high school this season. 

The main character to be introduced this time is Songdo High School Han Ji-min (181cm, G). 

Han Ji-min is considered the best brain in the team. He’s not very athletic, but he makes up for it with intelligent play. Based on this, he has established himself as an indispensable core presence, showing off his scoring ability since his freshman year.

Consistently given opportunities to play last season, he appeared in 21 games and averaged 10.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists.

Songdo High School head coach Choi Ho said, “His athletic ability isn’t great, but he’s smart. So he is a good player who plays basketball sensibly and intelligently. From his freshman year, he showed off his presence by raising high scores on the team. He is currently recovering from an ankle ligament injury before winter training, but he has great potential for growth. If his physical condition improves, he will be able to maintain good condition even after entering the season.”

In order for Han Ji-min to reach his potential, he needs to strengthen his muscles a bit more. Coach Choi said, “Physical is a weakness. If he strengthens his lower body strength a little more, he will be able to more than double his ability.”

He continued, “Until last year, I only needed to play my part. However, this year he is the oldest and has taken on the heavy responsibility of captain, so I hope he will show his ability and become a true leader who can embrace the team.” 먹튀검증

Han Ji-min, who is enthusiastic about rehabilitation exercises after an ankle injury, said, “It is a step to raise his body right after returning from injury. He is focusing on finding a sense of the game through field training. He is paying a lot of attention to weight training and defense.” He was busy preparing for the season.

As the captain this season, Han Ji-min revealed his determination to help Songdo-go regain its strong team.

He said, “As captain this year, you have to lead the team well and act as a game changer when the game doesn’t work out. Aiming for the quarterfinals or higher, I want to instill the perception that Songdo High School is a strong team. Personally, he wants to become a versatile player like Heo Hoon. I will try my best to achieve good results this season.” Han Ji-min said.

Let’s see if Songdo High School, which has been in the lower ranks for the past few years like Han Ji-min’s wish, will be able to show off a performance different from previous years in the 2023 season.
