경남사격연맹은 지난 13일 창원 CECO 더그레이드에서 ‘2026 경남 사격인의 밤’을 개최했다. 이날 행사에는 연맹 임원과 지도자, 선수, 유관기관 관계자 등 200여 명이 참석해 2025년 경남 사격 발전에 기여한 유공자를 격려하고 2026년 비전을 공유했다.
이번 협약들은 단순한 체육단체 연례행사를 넘어, 스포츠 인프라를 지역 관광과 의료 자원으로 확장하는 협력 구조를 구축했다는 점에서 의미가 크다. 선수들에게는 맞춤형 복지 혜택을 제공하고, 지역에는 숙박·외식 수요 창출을 통해 경제적 파급 효과를 기대할 수 있다는 분석이다.
본 행사에서는 2025년 한 해 동안 사격 발전에 기여한 지도자와 선수에게 장학금과 표창장이 수여됐으며, 만찬과 함께 경남 사격의 중장기 발전 방향을 공유하는 화합의 시간도 이어졌다. 행사에는 경상남도지사와 국회의원 진종오의 영상 및 축사가 전달됐고, 대한사격연맹 박정상 처장과 경남관광재단 배종천 이사장, 시·군 사격연맹 회장단과 선수·지도자들이 참석해 자리를 빛냈다.
최승필 경남장애인사격연맹 회장은 경남사격연맹이 기록과 성과를 넘어 공정함과 품격을 지켜온 대한민국 사격의 중심축이라고 평가하며, 김지운 회장의 통합적 리더십이 장애·비장애 사격이 함께 성장하는 토대가 되고 있다고 강조했다.
김지운 경남사격연맹 회장은 “사격인의 밤은 지난 성과를 돌아보는 동시에, 경남 사격이 나아갈 방향을 함께 모색하는 자리”라며 “이번 업무협약을 통해 사격인들의 실질적인 복지를 강화하고, 지역과 함께 성장하는 경남 사격의 미래를 열어가겠다”고 밝혔다.

The Gyeongnam shooting community held an event to share their achievements from the past year and pledge to take a new leap forward. This year, in particular, a business agreement linking sports, tourism, and healthcare was jointly promoted, drawing praise for presenting a model for the mutual growth of sports and the region.
The Gyeongnam Shooting Federation held the "2026 Gyeongnam Shooters' Night" at the Changwon CECO The Grade on the afternoon of the 13th. Approximately 200 people, including federation executives, coaches, athletes, and officials from related organizations, attended the event. They honored those who contributed to the development of Gyeongnam shooting in 2025 and shared their vision for 2026.
At a pre-event ceremony prior to the event, a multilateral business agreement was signed to foster regional coexistence. The Gyeongnam Shooting Federation, along with the Gyeongnam Tourism Foundation, the Changwon City Restaurant Association, and the Changwon City Lodging Association, signed a business agreement to revitalize the local economy by combining sports and tourism. Under the agreement, shooting athletes and officials visiting Gyeongnam for training or competitions will receive practical benefits, such as discounts on accommodations and dining, and joint promotional activities will be promoted to attract sports tourists.
A medical agreement was also signed to enhance the welfare of shooters. Masan Eye Clinic and German Hearing Aid signed agreements with the Gyeongnam Shooting Federation to provide specialized eye examinations and hearing management support to shooters and coaches. Reflecting the nature of shooting, where vision and hearing directly impact performance, the agreements focus on preventing hearing loss caused by shooting noise and systematic health management.
These agreements are significant in that they go beyond simply establishing annual sports events and establish a cooperative structure that expands sports infrastructure into regional tourism and healthcare resources. The agreements are expected to provide tailored welfare benefits to athletes and generate economic ripple effects by generating demand for accommodation and dining in the region.
The event presented scholarships and commendations to coaches and athletes who contributed to the development of shooting through 2025. A dinner and a gathering followed to share the mid- to long-term development direction for Gyeongnam shooting. The event featured video and congratulatory remarks from the Governor of Gyeongsangnam-do and National Assemblyman Jin Jong-oh. The event was graced by the presence of Park Jeong-sang, Director General of the Korea Shooting Federation, Bae Jong-cheon, Chairman of the Gyeongnam Tourism Foundation, and presidents of city and county shooting federations, as well as athletes and coaches.
Choi Seung-pil, President of the Gyeongnam Para Shooting Federation, praised the Gyeongnam Shooting Federation as a pivotal force in Korean shooting, maintaining fairness and dignity beyond records and achievements. He emphasized that President Kim Ji-woon's integrated leadership is laying the foundation for the shared growth of both disabled and non-disabled shooting.
Kim Ji-woon, the president of the Gyeongnam Shooting Federation, said, “The Shooters’ Night is a place to look back on past achievements and seek the future direction of Gyeongnam shooting,” and added, “Through this business agreement, we will strengthen the practical welfare of shooters and open the future of Gyeongnam shooting that grows together with the region.”
