11/22 (Fri) Participation Report of the "12th Stick Soccer Osaka Tournament"

GAMBA BOY and the GAMBA OSAKA Cheer Dance Team participated in the "12th Stick Soccer Osaka Tournament" held on Friday, November 22nd.

Stick soccer is a sport that is enjoyed by all ages and is a universal sport that aims to prevent the need for nursing care by promoting health and creating a sense of purpose in life for elderly people and people with disabilities who require assistance or care. Players sit down without using their feet and hit a ball with a stick, aiming to score a goal.

This tournament marks the 12th time it has been held, and is organized by Housenka, a Silver Partner and SDGsmile Partner, and the Japan Stick Football Association.

The opening performance at the opening ceremony featured a dance performance by GAMBA BOY and GAMBA CHEER.
The participants enjoyed themselves by clapping along to the music and moving their hands and bodies to imitate the dance.

This year, the opening pitch was thrown by a GAMBA BOY, who really got the crowd excited.

In the annual exhibition match, they participated as part of the GAMBA OSAKA team and came from behind to win with a score of 8-5.

We would like to thank the Housenka, the Japan Stick Football Association, and all other parties involved for their efforts in helping us participate in this tournament.

We will continue to participate in lifelong sports events like this and contribute to society by bringing smiles to the faces of local people and enriching their lives through health and welfare.
GAMBA OSAKA will continue to work with many people, including those in its hometown, to become a club that is loved by the local community.

This project is being carried out with the support of GAMBAssist companies.
