Son Woong-jung, a football coach and father of the Premier League star Son Heung-min, was summarily indicted Friday on charges of abusing young players at his football training center.The regional prosecutors in Chuncheon, some 75 kilometers northeast of Seoul, said Son and two of his assistant coaches at Son Football Academy in the eastern town were ordered to pay an undisclosed fine and to complete a training program designed to prevent further child abuse.One of the assistant coaches is Son Heung-min's older brother, Heung-yun.The three coaches are accused of physically and verbally abusing young players at the senior Son's namesake football training facility.The parents of one player reported Son and his staff to local police in March, and police forwarded the case to the prosecution the following month.Source: Yonhap News Agency
