"It's a very meaningful place to instill technical stimulation and confidence."

The Korea Sepak Takraw Association announced that it will hold a joint training session (2025 sports exchange agreement) with Sepak Takraw in 2025 at the Jincheon National Training Center for six days from the 1st to the 6th.

This joint training is a project aimed at enhancing competitiveness in the 2026 Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games and major international competitions, and is designed to strengthen practical response and skills through exchanges with world-class athletes.




The joint training will invite 16 Japanese national teams and be held with our national team. In particular, the Japanese team won the men's quad event at the 2025 World Sepak Takraw Championship for the first time, and it is expected to be an opportunity for the Korean national team to improve their performance as they have the best skills recently.

The joint training consists of setting training for each position, formation training, friendly matches, and technical exchange sessions, and focuses on strengthening tactical completeness and teamwork in an environment similar to the actual game.

In addition, a Korean cultural experience event will be held on the 5th, the fifth day of training, involving the Japanese team.




The Japanese team will participate in various K-cultural experience programs, including tours to Seoul Sky and Lotte World Tower, and will have time to promote friendship and expand cultural understanding between the two countries beyond sports exchanges. This cultural exchange is expected to be evaluated as a meaningful place for international cooperation and civilian diplomacy through sports beyond simple technical training.

The Korea Sepak Takraw Association plans to contribute to improving the national team's performance through this Korea-Japan joint training as well as strengthening the technical exchange and cooperation network between the two countries to improve the responsiveness of international competitions in the future. In addition, the association will actively reflect the establishment of strategies for the 2026 Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games and strengthening the power of major international competitions based on tactical data and exchange performance derived from the training.

Chairman of the Korea Sepak Takraw Association Kim Young-jin said, `The joint training with the world-class Japanese national team is a very meaningful occasion to instill technical stimulation and confidence in our players.' `Through this training, we will do our best to help the players grow to the next level and raise the status of Korea's Sepak Takraw on the international stage, including the upcoming 2026 Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games" he said.
