Pepper Savings Bank Breaks Record for Longest Losing Streak in Professional Volleyball for Both Men and Women<\/strong><\/p>\n The women’s division has the longest losing streak in a single season.<\/p>\n After losing 7 more games, we poured money into recruiting free agents, the most losing streak among men and women.<\/p>\n Stumbled due to problems with amateurish club management<\/p>\n Professional volleyball women’s Pepper Savings Bank is poised to break various records related to losses. \ud30c\uc6cc\ubcfc\uc2e4\uc2dc\uac04<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank lost with a set score of 2-3 in the home game against GS Caltex held at Pepper Stadium in Gwangju on the 6th, falling into the swamp of 20 consecutive losses, which is tied for the most consecutive losses in a single season.<\/p>\n If Pepper Savings Bank loses the visiting game against IBK Industrial Bank held at the Hwaseong General Indoor Stadium on the 10th, it will become the first professional volleyball women’s division to record a disgraceful record of 21 consecutive losses.<\/p>\n The problem is that the men’s losing streak record is not far away.<\/p>\n The record for the most consecutive losses in the men’s professional volleyball division was Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO at the time), which lost 27 times in a row over the 2007-2008 season and the 2008-2009 season.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank has 9 games left this season, so there is a possibility of breaking the record for the longest losing streak for both men and women within this year.<\/p>\n The team’s performance is miserable.<\/p>\n In 27 games this season, he recorded 2 wins, 25 losses, and 8 points.<\/p>\n There is a 20-point gap with 6th place Korea Expressway Corporation (9 wins, 17 losses, 28 points), so the chances of getting out of last place are slim.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank should focus on getting out of the worst situation rather than getting out of last place and competing with other teams.<\/p>\n The record of losing streak is not the only dishonorable record that Pepper Savings Bank<\/a> comes close to.<\/p>\n If they do not win the remaining games, they will break the record for the lowest win percentage in the women’s division since the launch of the V-League in 2005.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank’s previous record was 3 wins and 28 losses in the 2021-2022 season.<\/p>\n If Pepper Savings Bank does not win the remaining games, it will become the first team in history (based on seasons with more than 20 games per team) to have won less than 3 games in a season.<\/p>\n The minimum win record is 3 wins, held by Cheong Kwan Jang (KT&G at the time, 3 wins and 21 losses) in the 2006-2007 season, and Pepper Savings Bank in the 2021-2022 season.<\/p>\n The background to Pepper Savings Bank’s sluggish performance is the problem of amateurish club management.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank, which joined the professional volleyball team in the 2021-2022 season, spared no investment in attempting major changes ahead of the 2023-2024 season after achieving dismal results for two consecutive seasons.<\/p>\n In addition to recruiting proven foreign player Yasmin Bedart<\/a> (registered name Yasmin), they also brought in free agent (FA) Park Jeong-ah.<\/p>\n However, Pepper Savings Bank made a series of ridiculous mistakes during preparation for the season.<\/p>\n They made a mistake in the list of compensation players to be given to the Korea Expressway Corporation and sent away starting setter Lee Go-eun, and made a farce by hurriedly giving up middle blocker Choi Ga-eun and a first-round pick in the 2023-2024 season rookie draft to re-recruit Lee Go-eun.<\/p>\n Coach Aachen Kim, who was appointed as the new head coach, resigned due to personal reasons just four months after taking office, completely shaking the team atmosphere.<\/p>\n The club quickly appointed coach Joe Tringe, but the preparation period for the season was too short.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank participated in the cup competition two months after the appointment of Coach Tringe<\/a>, and immediately entered the season.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank, which started the new season in a chaotic atmosphere, collapsed helplessly.<\/p>\n Pepper Savings Bank’s only wins were against Korea Expressway Corporation (3-2) on October 19th last year and against GS Caltex (3-2) on November 10th.<\/p>\n It has been 89 days since the players tasted victory.<\/p>\n The problem is that there is no clear way out of the crisis.<\/p>\n To make matters worse, foreign player Yasmin’s condition deteriorated rapidly.<\/p>\n He injured his right shoulder in the game against Korea Expressway Corporation on the 3rd and missed the game against GS Caltex on the 6th.<\/p>\n This is not the first time Yasmin has complained of shoulder pain.<\/p>\n
