Announcement of the 28th MIXI presents FC TOKYO CUP (Formerly Saramini) event

This year marks the 28th edition of the 'Salaryman Mini Soccer Tournament (commonly known as Saramini)', which will be held this year under the new name 'Sec. 28 MIXI presents FC TOKYO CUP (formerly Saramini)'.

We are pleased to announce the FC TOKYO CUP (formerly Saramini), aimed at providing a space for working adults who find it difficult to enjoy soccer regularly, to deepen interactions across industry, age, and gender. This event is made possible with the sponsorship of MIXI, Inc., whose philosophy is to create a place and opportunities where "hearts are connected."

This is a friendly tournament that everyone can enjoy, regardless of their soccer experience.
Let's break a good sweat together with friends who love FC Tokyo!
