212cm Australian Bomber Loving Korea

Thomas Edgar (35, Australia, 2m12cm) will knock on the door of the V-League for the first time in 10 seasons.

A welcome face appeared at the Korea Volleyball Federation (KOVO) men's foreign player tryout in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The protagonist is Edgar. He had a medical test on the morning of September 9 (Korea Standard Time) and showed off his skills by participating in practice matches in the afternoon.

Edgar had played for LIG Insurance (currently KB Insurance) for two seasons from the 2013-14 season. He scored 1,897 points during the two seasons, playing 261 sets in 66 games. He also scored 51 points in a single game. He was named the Triple Crown in the match against KEPCO and the All-Star MVP in the 2013-14 season.

He is aiming to enter the V-League after 10 seasons. Edgar also said that he still remembers the Korean words "Hello" and "Thank you."

"I am in a situation where I can play well both physically and physically. When I was playing 11 years ago, I played more games using physical strength than experience. I have more experience than experience for 11 years now," he said. "I have five foreign coaches in the V-League. I think it is positive because the trend of volleyball around the world can flow into Korea. Through this, I thought it would be fun to draw out the potential of Korean players and create many changes and fun parts for the league, which motivated me."

Edgar only has his schedule on the first day of the tryout. He is playing for Al Ain, which is based in the United Arab Emirates, and coincidentally, he won the semifinals of the UAE Cup and reached the final. "I thought I would fail the quarterfinals…Edgar, who smiled awkwardly, said, "It takes about an hour (from Dubai to Al Ain). I have training schedule on Friday and Saturday and I have to play the final. That's why I can't participate from day two."

A long time has passed. Edgar is feeling this as well. Most of his former LIG colleagues are pursuing leadership after retirement. "It was strange that I felt like I was getting old," Edgar said. "I met with Lee Kyung-soo, secretary-general of Pepper Savings Bank again. Not only my teammates but also all the people I played for are leaders. What was good about it was that Korea can retire and pursue a volleyball career."

After all, the key is me. Born in 1989, he is in his mid-30s. In the V-League, where foreign players account for a high proportion, players must be physically supported as much as their skills. Edgar is still confident.

"I think the coaching staff can appeal to me depending on what they want," he said. "I can fully demonstrate my physical capabilities as much as I did in my heyday. I have experienced the Asian volleyball system for about seven years while playing in Korea and Japan. I think these experiences will be superior to other players."
