Established as a corporation in 2020, Treasure Island Namhae Sports Club previously founded U-12 at Namhae Elementary School and U-15 at Idong Middle School, and this time established U-18 at Changseon High School.

They have demonstrated outstanding skills, including winning and placing third in the Jeju Tamna Middle School National Tournament, winning both elementary and middle school categories at the Gyeongnam Student Comprehensive Sports Competition, and finishing as runner-up in the Cheongryonggi Middle School National Tournament.

Compared to professional youth teams that operate by integrating elementary, middle, and high school age groups, they are completing a specialized player development-linked club, striving to elevate the status of Namhae-gun.

At the inauguration ceremony held on the 22nd, Namhae County Governor Jang Chung-nam, County Council Chairman Im Tae-sik, Changseon Academy Chairman Park Young-an, Vice President of the University Football Association Choi Young-il, Namhae Education Director Shim Hyun-ho, Namhae Sports Council Chairman Park Gyu-jin, executives of Treasure Island Namhae Sports Club, and about 500 football officials and residents of Changseon-myeon attended to celebrate the founding of the U-18 team.

Park Jin-hee, General Director, and Bae Jong-pil, Director of Treasure Island Namhae Sports Club U-18, said, “We thank the parents who trusted us with their children, and we will do our best to nurture and develop our students. Also, to everyone present here, we pledge to advance Namhae football with a determination to win.”

Governor Jang said, “Many people from Namhae are involved in the football world. Following the U-12 and U-15 teams of Treasure Island Namhae Sports Club, the establishment of U-18 here in Namhae is very meaningful. I hope they grow into excellent players in our Namhae, a mecca for football and training camps, and become outstanding players who go global.”
