The corona crisis in professional sports is getting more and more serious.

Women's volleyball managed to resume wearing a mask, but the men's basketball team gave up their participation in the World Cup qualifiers due to the number of confirmed cases.

Last week, as many as 13 players were confirmed, the women's volleyball road construction players all wore masks and started playing in 16 days.



In order to prevent contact with the opposing team, we did not change the court every set, and we minimized the number of people entering the stadium by eliminating the 'mapper' that wipes the court.



As the game is delayed during the suspension period, the road construction company must conduct a forced march with four games over the next nine days.

I think I need to do a lot of physical fitness.]



Men's volleyball is much more serious.



Among the confirmed cases from all 7 clubs, 4 clubs could not fill the 'minimum of 12 players', so the restart time, which was originally on the 25th, was delayed three days more. 



Men's basketball, which caused a scandal by forcing the game despite successive confirmed cases, was literally 'destroyed'.



The national team, which was going to leave today for the World Cup qualifiers, eventually gave up on participation due to an increasing number of infected people, and professional basketball, in which more than 100 players and coaching staff were infected, delayed the end of the regular season by a week.
