KDH Football Academy Community Lifestyle: More Than Football, A Family of Growth

Life at KDH: More Than Football, A Community Lifestyle

At KDH Football Academy Community Lifestyle, football is just the starting point. Beyond skills on the pitch, our players experience travel, culture, and friendships that shape their future. Parents and families often share that KDH is not just an academy—it’s a lifestyle. The bonds built here, the values instilled, and the adventures lived together create memories and lessons that go far beyond the game.

 

U11’s Journey to Japan: Growth Through Football and Culture

In early October, our KDH U11 team traveled to Osaka, Japan, for a unique experience blending competition and culture. Under the guidance of Coach IB and our director Kim Jae Hee, the players played matches against Japanese teams, winning some, losing others—but always learning.

Matches and Lessons Learned

What stood out was not only the football itself, but the growth gained through cultural exposure. Our players interacted with international peers, observing their discipline and stamina, and realizing where they could improve.

Experiencing Japanese Culture

This trip gave them the opportunity to compare strengths, identify new goals, and broaden their horizons. Football may have been the reason for the trip, but the lessons went far beyond the pitch—teaching resilience, humility, and appreciation of another culture’s traditions.

Daphne’s South Korea Adventure: Football Meets Culture

Another highlight this season was Daphne’s trip to South Korea for the APEC Cup. Beyond the football matches, this journey was about experiencing the richness of Korean culture.

Football Competition at the APEC Cup

Our players faced strong international teams, gaining valuable lessons about stamina, teamwork, and tactical play.

Cultural Visits and Team Bonding

Players visited ancient temples, explored local attractions, and even wore traditional Korean outfits. Nights at the dorms were filled with joy—singing, dancing, and bonding with coaches and teammates.

Trips like this remind us that football is not only about competition, but also about living life fully—through culture, friendship, and adventure.

 

Gratitude to Our Parents and Families

We recognize that none of these opportunities would be possible without the unwavering support of our KDH families. Whether traveling alongside the players, cheering from home, or supporting in countless small ways, parents are at the heart of our academy’s success.
