Last year's event was canceled due to the spread of COVID-19, so it will be held for the first time in two years, with 17 city and provincial teams participating, including national representative athletes who competed in the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
The event, hosted by the Korean Sports Council, consists of ice sports such as speed skating, short track, and figure skating; ski sports including alpine, cross-country, and snowboard; as well as ice hockey, biathlon, and curling competitions.
Competitions will be held in categories under 13, under 16, under 19, university division, and general division. This year’s event will be held from February 25 to 28, distributed across Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Gangwon-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do.
From the Gyeongnam Office of Education, 27 student athletes are expected to showcase their skills in short track, figure skating, skiing, snowboarding, and ice hockey.
The Gyeongnam Office of Education has taken measures such as enrolling athletes in the Sports Safety Foundation insurance and complying with COVID-19 infection prevention guidelines to ensure the safety of participants, and has inspected the venues.
