Precautions

Registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis (registration will close once the capacity is reached).
Please note that our soccer school does not register teams or players with the Japan Football Association . This is especially important for older children who wish to participate in training center activities or official matches.
There will be no practice matches or anything like that. This is a soccer school that focuses solely on practice sessions.
Because the field is made of dirt, games may be canceled due to poor field conditions caused by rain, etc. (In such cases, a make-up game will be scheduled within the designated day of the week).
There is no system for making up missed classes.
Please use public transportation to get to the practice venue (there are no school buses, etc.).
Cancellations and refunds are not accepted after the application has been completed.
School students will be required to join the GAMBA OSAKA Fan Club, and we will provide further details after you register.
The Hirakata school uses a dirt field, so the membership fee is different from other schools.
