Precautions

Registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis (registration will close once capacity is reached).
Our soccer school does not register teams or players with the Japan Football Association , so please be aware of this if you are an older student who wishes to participate in training centre activities or official matches.
There will be no practice matches. This is a soccer school with practice only.
As the ground is dirt, the event may be cancelled due to poor ground conditions due to rain or other reasons (in which case it will be rescheduled within the set day).
There is no make-up system for absences.
Please use public transportation to get to the practice venue (school buses, etc. are not available).
Cancellations and refunds are not possible after the application is completed.
Students will be required to join the GAMBA OSAKA Fan Club, and we will provide further information after you apply.
Hirakata School has a dirt ground, so the membership fees are different from other schools.
