[Report] FC Tokyo Players' Association Elementary School Visit

On June 6 (Mon), 14 (Tue), 15 (Wed), and 16 (Thu), 2022, the FC Tokyo Players Association conducted elementary school visits.
The elementary school visits, which have been conducted continuously since 2008, have reached their 15th year this year.

This year, considering the impact of the new coronavirus infection, the event was held online. We visited a total of 9 elementary schools in Fuchu City, Mitaka City, Chofu City, Kodaira City, Nishitokyo City, Koganei City, Suginami Ward, Setagaya Ward, and Shibuya Ward for the first time as a club.

Although we couldn't have direct interaction on site, it was a fun time of exchange with overflowing smiles from each school.
In addition, Hikaru MITA visited his alma mater, Setagaya Ward Matsuoka Elementary School, and cheered on the children who will become his juniors.


□Manato SHINADA (FC Tokyo Player President) Comment

"We have conducted online visits to elementary schools in 6 cities that have provided us with great support every year, as well as elementary schools in Shibuya Ward, Setagaya Ward, Suginami Ward, and new areas. We hoped that the children would learn something that would be useful in their future lives from us players, but in return, we were able to gain energy from the brightness and pure, shining appearance of the children."
We deeply appreciate everyone who made efforts for this elementary school visit. Through these activities, we will continue to strive to make FC Tokyo known to many people.
And I hope that in the next visit, I will be able to interact directly with the children! Thank you for your continued support and encouragement to FC Tokyo.'


□Player Hirotaka Mita's Comment
※Online Visit to His Alma Mater, Setagaya Ward Matsuoka Elementary School

"I love Setagaya Ward, my hometown, and this time I had the opportunity to have my first online class at Matsuo Elementary School, which is not only in my hometown but also my alma mater, and I really enjoyed it myself."
In Setagaya Ward, there may be people who are not familiar with FC Tokyo, and there are also many children who have never been to the stadium, so I would be happy if this visit could spark their interest in FC Tokyo and they could come to the stadium. "
