Last year, the players' association visited the disaster-stricken area of "Futaba Town, Fukushima Prefecture" caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake.
◇The scene of last year's visit is here

We had planned to visit the disaster-stricken areas again this year, but due to the impact of the coronavirus, we were unable to make the visit. The players' association also considered "what we can do as much as possible" and carefully coordinated with the local people to implement it, but unfortunately, it did not come to fruition.

The visit from the players' association could not be realized, but we received a video message of support from the teachers and students of Tomioka Elementary School, who visited last year, for the Levain Cup final that will be held on January 4, 2021.
With the support of the teachers and students of Tomioka Elementary School, we will compete in the Levain Cup Final Round.
