Special Debut in Korean Volleyball League
She was recorded as collecting 21 points when his team played against Hwangseong IBK Altos. Consisting of two points in the form of an ace serve and three blocks, the rest is through spikes with a success percentage of 47 percent.
This success led to Megawati, who played in the opposite position, being named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) in the match.
This award also fulfills his wish when she officially joined Daejeon KGC. At that time, Megawati, who was listed as the first Indonesian volleyball player to compete in the Korean League, was determined to play well for her team.
“I want to show a good performance and I want to win the title with my teammates and win it,” said Megawati as reported by koreajoongangdaily.joins.com
It is known that the 24 year old athlete joined KGC last summer through the Asian player quota draft. A new system was adopted this year, where teams can add foreign players to the squad from selected Asian countries.
Megawati herself is a player who transferred from the Jakarta team Pertamina Fastron, last season’s Proliga runner up.
She was also recorded as winning the best opposite category award at the 2023 Asian Women’s Volleyball Challenge Cup. At that time, Indonesia finished as runner up.
Her skills in managing volleyball and playing well on the court were also praised by KGC head coach, Ko Hee-jin, who said Megawati had good attacks and blocks. “Her attitude during practice is also good. She is also diligent,” said Ko Hee-jin.
