This training camp brings together approximately 70 youth athletes and coaches selected from across the country, and features a systematic and professional training program.

The program covers a variety of areas, including basic physical conditioning, tactical training, psychological counseling, character education, and video analysis. It is expected to not only enhance the athletes' focus and self-management skills, but also serve as an important evaluation ground for selecting national representatives for major upcoming international competitions, such as the U-17 Asian Junior Championships.

In particular, this training camp is anticipated to inject new vitality into the local economy, which has been gradually recovering since the massive wildfire last spring. The presence of the athletes and staff during the training period is expected to generate demand for local restaurants, shops, and various other businesses, leading to positive economic effects for the region.

County Governor Yoon Kyunghee stated, "Hosting this training camp is a valuable opportunity to bring real vitality to the local economy, which has been slowly recovering since the wildfire last spring. I sincerely hope that outstanding youth athletes from across the nation will hone their skills here in Cheongsong, and that their training in this place will lead to meaningful achievements in future competitions. Cheongsong County will continue to strive for regional economic revitalization based on sports and to become a leading city for sports in the future."
