Uljin-gun Selected for 'Bandabi Sports Center' Project... Secures 4 Billion KRW in National Funding
Uljin-gun, Gyeongbuk, has been selected as a new site for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's public contest project, the ‘2024 Community-Based (Disability-Friendly) National Sports Center Contest Project (Bandabi Sports Center)’ for the area around Sungok-ri, Geunnam-myeon (Comprehensive Sports Complex), securing 4 billion KRW in national funding.
The Community-Based National Sports Center Contest Project is a long-awaited project of Uljin-gun aimed at establishing an integrated sports environment for both disabled and non-disabled individuals, and is a national agenda project for ‘Sports for All, Realizing Comprehensive Sports Welfare.’
The county applied for the contest in January 2024 to build an integrated sports environment for disabled and non-disabled people, and was selected after receiving high evaluations during the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s on-site inspection and assessment in March.
Through this contest, Uljin-gun will invest a total project cost of 9 billion KRW (4 billion KRW national funds, 5 billion KRW local funds) to build a sports center (including an aquatic exercise room, small gymnasium, and fitness center) within the Sungok-ri Comprehensive Sports Complex in Geunnam-myeon, expanding infrastructure for community sports facilities and promoting projects to improve the sports environment such as ensuring residents’ health.
