The newly revamped Handball Winter League kicks off today at SK Handball Stadium in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul.
The handball league, which was held under the name SK Handball Korea League until last season, will be known as the Shinhan SOL Pay 2023-2024 Handball League after attracting an external title sponsor from this season.
The opening match between the SK Sugar Gliders and the Busan Facilities Corporation on Nov. 11 at 1 p.m. will draw attention to the presence of foreign players.
SK Sugar Gliders' Ikumi Iwabuchi (Japan) and Busan Facilities Corporation's Alina Molkova (Estonia) and Joana da Costa (Angola) are the three foreign players in the women's division this season, and they will face off in the opening match on the first day.
Mokova and Da Costa arrived in Korea in July and have been working diligently with the local athletes.
"My teammates are treating me well, the facilities and training conditions are good, and I'm getting along well," they said on Aug. 8 at the Korean Gymnasium in Songpa-gu, Seoul, adding, "The food is generally good, but the concept of 'spicy' is not what I'm used to."
Born in 1997, Molkova is a 5-foot-11 left back for the Estonian national team. She has played in the Israeli, German, and Portuguese leagues and led her team to the Portuguese league title in 2022.
She was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the Portuguese Cup last year and the Best Women's Handball Player in Estonia for five consecutive years starting in 2018.
Da Costa, a right back born in 1996, has played in the French and Spanish leagues and represented Angola in 2018, leading the team to the top of the African Championship.
Da Costa speaks Portuguese, and Molkova also plays in the Portuguese league and speaks some Portuguese, so communication between the two is easy.
"With their national team experience, they will be a great addition to the team," said Kang Jae-won, head coach of Busan Facilities Corporation. "The newly signed Lee Hye-won is also a player with great potential for development, so we will challenge for good results with new team colors in the new season." 슬롯사이트
