Seoul E-Land FC announced on the 22nd that it held a soccer clinic called the "Walking Together Festival" for 80 students from the Mongolia School in Korea at Seoul Children's Grand Park in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, on the 21st.

The Mongolia School in Korea is an international school for children of Mongolian immigrants residing in South Korea. Seoul E-Land has been operating clinics for them for four consecutive years since 2023.

According to the club, nine of the club's youth coaches served as one-day coaches on this day. Students from grades 1 through 5 of elementary school were divided into four groups and trained in basic soccer skills such as agility, dribbling, passing, and shooting. Following a mini-game, they held a raffle event to distribute signed balls and club merchandise.

Coach Jung Ho-jeong, who directed the event on-site, said, "The bright demeanor of the children actually gives me strength. I hope soccer becomes an opportunity for them to interact with friends and develop a sense of cooperation." Bank of Korea Gyeong, the student affairs director of the Mongolia School in Korea, responded by saying, "We are grateful to the club for providing such a wonderful opportunity every year, and we hope this precious connection continues."

Meanwhile, Seoul E-Land is working to expand the base of soccer by building an artificial turf field within Seoul Children's Grand Park and holding clinics for culturally disadvantaged groups.
