Top basketball class about to participate in the KBL Youth Cup… “To the finals this year!”

The TOP basketball class is busy preparing for the KBL youth basketball tournament.

The Associate For Youth project, which has been underway since 2022 for the development of Korean youth basketball. The TOP Basketball Class High School Team, which is working on this project, will challenge for the KBL Youth Cup as a member of the Jung Kwan-jang Red Boosters U18 national team.

The TOP Basketball Class, which has also been active as Jeong Kwan-jang’s Youth Basketball Club since last year, will participate in the 2024 KBL Youth Cup, which will be held in Yanggu, Gangwon-do from the 18th to the 21st.

The TOP basketball class, which failed to advance to the finals after being caught by the winning team Samsung in the semifinals of the last tournament, is seeking revenge this year.

The TOP basketball class, which started preparing for the tournament early, started preparing for the real game by playing a practice match with the university team of Goyang City, which advanced to the quarterfinals with a victory in the university team of Gyeonggi Province Governor’s Sports Basketball Competition this year.

The heads and coaches of each TOP basketball class, including Park Jun-hyung, Lee Won-ho, and Kang Seung-kwan, are encouraging players by guiding various tactics. In particular, the TOP basketball class, which is preparing a lot for active rim attacks and space utilization, is also training in case they meet a team with better physical conditions than them.

“I learned a lot from practice matches with college seniors,” said Ko, who was selected for the U18 national team ahead of the upcoming competition. “At first, I was just standing still because I was nervous, but I think it worked out well as I found a way to move with the coaches’ advice in the second half,” adding, “The first practice match with college seniors was not easy.”

“Before the upcoming KBL Youth Cup, I am focusing on my defense to the end. Even if there is a foul, I will contribute to my team by proactively playing defense that harasses opponents. I am paying a lot of attention to that part of the competition, as only sweatshirt defense is allowed. I was very disappointed as I got hurt from the first game in last year’s KBL competition, but this year I will work hard to dispel last year’s regret,” he said.

Shin Dong-hyuk, the representative of the university team in Goyang who participated in the practice match for the TOP U18 national team, said, “I was surprised because the quality of the kids was high. It was difficult to play against the team as a whole due to the formation of a good atmosphere. However, there are still areas where conversations are not sufficient when defending, so I think if we supplement those areas well, we will achieve good results. I will cheer for them to show good results in this KBL Youth Cup.”

The TOP basketball class, which was organized in Group B at the 2024 KBL Youth Cup, aims to advance to the final tournament by playing preliminary games against SK and Samsung in the absence of DB.
