“The LA Galaxy II Open Tryouts in South Korea are an opportunity for Koreans to showcase their soccer talents in front of staff which they would not normally have access or opportunity to. We are excited the project is returning for a second year in Korea. Last year was a huge success in the events we ran, helping facilitate opportunities for players to train with the Galaxy in LA. We are looking forward to making the tryouts even more successful this year and growing the game in South Korea.” Said Junwoo Kim, Director and CEO of Apex Sports Management.
