On the 7th, NC Dinos announced that it will send three players to Sydney Blue Sox, a club in the Australian Baseball League (ABL), during the off-season to enhance the practical experience and skills of its promising talents.

According to the NC team, the selected players are catcher Lee Hee-seong (19), infielder Lee Han (23), and outfielder Yoon Jun-hyeok (25). The club plans to distribute these promising players across various positions—catcher, infielder, and outfielder—to thoroughly assess their competitiveness on the international stage. To support the players' local training, game operations, and physical management, coach Kwon Jeong-woong and trainer Yeo Eun-soo will accompany them.

The player delegation and coaching staff are scheduled to depart on November 12, complete all regular-season ABL matches, and return in early February next year. The ABL is an international baseball league based in Australia that brings together promising players from the U.S. minor leagues and various countries worldwide. NC added, "Following our programs with Geelong Korea in 2022, Brisbane Bandits in 2023, and Perth Heat in 2024, we have continued to send players to the ABL every year, maintaining a systematic player development program."

NC further stated, "This dispatch is not merely a simple overseas training trip but will be operated as a comprehensive development program covering actual game participation, local adaptation, physical management, and improvement of game operation capabilities."

NC Dinos President Im Sun-nam conveyed through the club, "The ABL provides an excellent platform for promising players to gain high-level practical experience during the winter. Since previously dispatched players have demonstrated significant growth in their skills, we expect Lee Hee-seong, Lee Han, and Yoon Jun-hyeok to accumulate valuable experience and become major assets to the team. The club will provide full support."

Finally, NC emphasized, "Moving forward, we plan to diversify the growth pathways for promising players through dispatches to overseas leagues and various international exchange programs, while strengthening our long-term club development system."
