The Korea Wrestling Association will hold the "2025 Wrestling Developing Countries Joint Training" in Sangju City, Gyeongsangbuk-do from the 7th to the 16th. The 'Joint Training Invitation of Developing Players' is an international sports exchange event that invites athletes from developing countries to Korea to fully support airline tickets and lodging and provide advanced training facilities and customized training programs. In addition to contributing to the improvement of the performance of developing countries and the development of sports infrastructure, it is also promoting the status of Korean wrestling and the diplomatic ripple effect.
A total of 22 national team players will participate in the training. Kyrgyzstan's national wrestling team will be invited to the men's freestyle and Gregorian freestyle, and Mongolia's national wrestling team will be invited to conduct joint training with Korean athletes in the women's freestyle. The Korean Wrestling Association has been pushing for the main event in Sangju City since 2023, and in particular, the Kyrgyz team has been invited for three consecutive years and is drawing attention as an exemplary example of continuous sports cooperation between the two countries. This project is funded by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the National Sports Promotion Agency, and as a representative model of Korean sports ODA, it is creating practical cooperation results with developing countries.
