Park, Ki-won, who has accepted the leadership of Thailand in the framework of the FIVB plan for the global development of volleyball in Southeast Asia, definitely has a lot of motivation to prove Thai volleyball in Asia.

The 22nd Asian Men’s Volleyball Championship will start tomorrow (Saturday, August 19) and will continue until the 24 of August, hosted by the city of Urmia, with the participation of 17 teams.

The 2023 Asia Challenge Cup championship, 8 championships, 5 runner-up championships and 5 third places in the Southeast Asian Games, and a fourth place in the Hangzhou Asian Games in 2010 are all that Thai volleyball has in its treasure trove of honors.

Although Thailand, with the presence of strong Asian volleyball teams, does not have much chance to be in the final 4 teams, it is looking to prove itself and be in one of the 5th to 8th places.

Parki Ki-won, the former head coach of the Iranian national volleyball team, who won the silver medal at the 2002 Busan Asian Games and the bronze medal at the 2005 Asian Men’s Championship between 2002 and 2005, is now the head coach of the Thai national team.

Park Ki-won, who has accepted the leadership of Thailand in the framework of FIVB’s plan for the global development of volleyball in Southeast Asia, definitely has a lot of motivation to prove Thailand’s volleyball in Asia, and Iran’s hosting is also the reason why Korean Park’s motivations will increase.

The country of 70 million people, Thailand, which is governed as a kingdom, has Muay Thai as its first sport, and if martial arts allow, other sports such as volleyball, football, and futsal are also developing and progressing, so that the Thai futsal team is the third after the national teams of Iran and Japan. It is the strongest team in Asia.

Now we have to see what souvenirs Thailand will take from Urmia for its people. One of the three medals of this tournament, the 4th to 17th places, or the sweet quotes of Urmia.
