(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Dongchan Kim = Dayone Sports, which operates professional basketball Goyang Carrot Jumpers, announced on the 12th that it had paid 500 million won for the first KBL subscription fee.
Day1 Sports said, “We apologize for causing concern to the professional basketball world due to the problem of paying the subscription fee.”
After the 2021-2022 season, Dayone Sports, which took over the Goyang Orion basketball team, attracted Carrot Insurance as a naming sponsor and held an inauguration ceremony in August under the name of the Goyang Carrot Jumpers.
However, the KBL membership fee, which was due to be paid by the 7th, might not be paid within the deadline, so KBL decided through the board of directors on the 11th that ‘If you do not pay in full by noon on the 13th, you will not be allowed to participate in the regular league starting on the 15th.’
If Carrot fails to pay the membership fee, there was concern that the league would be played with nine teams for the first time in professional basketball history, which was launched in 1997. .
Former national team coach Heo Jae, who is the ‘basketball president’, takes over as the club’s representative, and Kim Seung-gi, former manager of Anyang KGC Ginseng Corporation, takes over the baton, and Carrot will play the 2022-2023 season opening match once morest Wonju DB at Goyang Gymnasium in Gyeonggi-do at 4 pm on the 15th.
