3rd day of U-12 Soccer Festival in Kijima Taira.
I took a morning walk in a fantastic landscape where fog was swirling.
Afterwards, I had a hearty breakfast to prepare for the game.
This time, the accommodation also took care of allergies, and for children who need special attention,
They took the approach of handing over the corresponding meal while confirming it in person.
The tournament is now in its 2nd round of matches starting today.
Based on the previous match results, we must not lose to the opponent we lost to.
We cannot lose to the team we beat last time.
I was playing hard while showing signs of fatigue.
We all had beef bowl for lunch together.
There were many children who ate quickly and asked for seconds!
In the afternoon, we did a fish catching experience as a natural experience.
Catching fish that are running away in a very cold river, some children catch them well and some do not.
There were many children who didn't want to touch it, but I think it was a very good experience to feel the temperature of cold water and the texture of fish.
I also had the fish I caught grilled on the spot and ate it.
Everyone was surprised by its deliciousness!
Dinner was luxurious with shabu-shabu and hamburgers, but
Some children who ate one fish seemed to be full.
Afterwards, for the final night's enjoyment, we held a bingo tournament as a recreational activity.
The special prize is a pair of shoes signed by the players!
I think the child who hit it will become a lifelong memory.
Tomorrow will be the final day.
I hope to finish the tournament and return to Tokyo safely.
