On Monday, January 12th (national holiday), the "Everyone's Soccer Festival" sponsored by the GAMBA OSAKA Suita Supporters Association was held at MK Taxi Field.
Following on from last year, the event was held with the cooperation of the GAMBA OSAKA Alumni Players Association, with the aim of "providing a place where people can feel closer to soccer."
The approximately two-hour event began with a stadium tour, which included a look at the VIP room and pitch side. Following a warm-up with "Serious Radio Calisthenics" by the general incorporated association Rajine, a soccer class was held by a former GAMBA OSAKA player, with participants divided into parent-child, children, and adult courses, where they received instruction on ball circulation and passing, and finally a mini-game.
At the end of the event, a big raffle was held with prizes such as desk calendars and autographed T-shirts, making it a very exciting event.
Participants sent messages such as, "It was a memorable experience to kick the ball with alumni. It was so much fun! I'll definitely participate again next year!"
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who participated in this event, including the GAMBA OSAKA Suita Supporters' Association, the GAMBA OSAKA Players Alumni Association, and all the staff who helped make it possible.
