"To help the players in the Futures League adapt to the home stadium environment of the first team."

KIA Tigers will open the first-team stadium to raise the goal consciousness of second-team players. KIA announced on the 18th that `The club has decided to hold the Futures League match scheduled to be held in Hampyeong at Gwangju Kia Champions Field.'

There are a total of five Futures League games to be held at Gwangju Kia Champions Field. Two consecutive games with the KT Wiz's second division will be held in Gwangju from the 20th to the 21st, and an exchange match with the NPB's Softbank Hawks' third division will be held from the 30th to the 1st of next month.




An official from KIA said, "We promoted the Gwangju game to help the players who are playing in the Futures League adapt to the game environment, such as the ground of the first-team home stadium, before being called up to the first-team stage, and to provide fans with an opportunity to watch the Futures League game at Champions Field, which is easy to access." explained the background.

KIA plans to open Champions Field to fans for free during the five Futures League games. It was meaningful not to expect profits, but to provide an opportunity to meet KIA's futures in Gwangju comfortably and a little early for fans purely.

Meanwhile, announcements related to the game, such as the opening time of the three consecutive games with Softbank's third-tier team and open seats, will be announced on the club's official SNS later.
