TEAM AS ONE"Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake" Recovery Support Activities Home Game Invitation Implementation Report

On April 11th (Saturday), at the Meiji Yasuda J1 J.LEAGUE 100 YEAR VISION LEAGUE Matchday 10th Sec. against Cerezo Osaka, we held a home game invitation event for people from the affected areas as part of our "Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake" recovery support activities.

This invitation was made possible by the "TEAM AS ONE" donations that our fans and supporters entrusted to us, hoping for the recovery of the disaster-stricken areas.
This time, we invited a total of 44 people from Shiga Town, Ishikawa Prefecture, including elementary, junior high, and high school students, their guardians, and representatives from the Ishikawa Prefectural Football Association.

On the day of the match, as part of the pre-match events, participants had the opportunity to experience being an emblem flag bearer, escort kid, and fair play flag bearer, and enjoyed a special time standing on the pitch with the players.

After the match, a commemorative photo was taken on the pitch, and players Nakatani, Minamino, Nawata, and Araki joined the group of participants, enjoying a moment of interaction.

In addition to watching the soccer match, on the following day, April 12th (Sunday), with the cooperation of Osaka Burtheon, we also watched the 2025-26 Daido Life SV.LEAGUE MEN match between Osaka Burtheon and Nippon Steel Sakai Blazers.

On that day, we were provided with the same lunch that the players actually eat before the match, and we were also given the opportunity to experience volleyball on the court before the stadium opened. Furthermore, despite it being before the match, player Nishida made a surprise appearance!

He interacted with the participants, and during the match, the stadium announcements introduced this initiative and the invited organizations.

GAMBA OSAKA will continue its recovery support activities through sports, standing by the people in the affected areas and moving forward together with them.
