OK Financial Group (Chairman Choi Yoon) announced on the 14th that it has delivered training supplies to the baseball department of Yongin University of Arts and Sciences. The training supplies delivery event was held at 11 a.m. on the 14th at the main building of Yongin University of Arts and Sciences and delivered training supplies such as official bats for the game and balls for practice.
In addition to Kwon Chul-geun, head of OK Financial Group's sports group, Choi Sung-sik, president of Yongin University of Arts and Sciences, and Choi Young-pil, director of Yongin University of Arts and Sciences, the baseball team attended the event, adding significance.
OK Financial Group has consistently visited and sponsored people or organizations in areas that are relatively under the spotlight in the sports world. In volleyball, 'OK Youth Volleyball Scholarship' was awarded to amateur middle and high school volleyball players with outstanding performances, and 'OK Golf Scholarship' was selected to support middle and high school players who will lead Korean women's golf through the OK Allocation Scholarship Foundation, a public interest corporation of OK Financial Group.
Although the Yongin University of Arts and Sciences' baseball team was founded in 2021, it has advanced to the U-League King's match for two consecutive years in 2023 and 2024, and has made tangible results such as advancing to the round of 16 at the national university baseball championship and the quarterfinals of the presidential university baseball tournament. The sponsorship was held to help the baseball team of Yongin University of Arts and Sciences, which showed its potential in such a short time.
OK Financial Group, which operates OK Savings Bank's professional volleyball team and OK's rugby team, has continued its relationship with baseball in many ways. In addition to this sponsorship, it has been sponsoring the National Deaf Baseball Tournament since 2010, and since 2019, it has continued to sponsor the national Deaf Baseball Tournament by changing the name of former coach Sun Dong-yeol to 「Seondong Yeol-bae OK National Deaf Baseball Tournament」 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the national Deaf Baseball Tournament.
An official from OK Financial Group said, `I hope that the athletes who are working hard on the amateur stage continue their dreams in a better environment" and "We will continue various social contribution activities to expand the base of sports in the future."
