In May 2026, events were held in the Kashima area for various age groups: kids, and elementary school students from 1st to 6th grade.
Various events, including game schools and soccer classes for elementary school students, were held, and many players participated!
Please see below for event details and how the day unfolded.
[May 10th (Sun) Game School in Itako]
The "Game School in Itako" was held at Smile Sports Park (Maekawa Sports Park) grounds for elementary school students from 1st to 6th grade.
At the Game School, training was conducted to deepen understanding of soccer and how to move on the field, such as off-the-ball movements and marking, which are essential in actual matches.
Students were divided by grade level for training, and coaches taught them what was necessary for each grade.
Many players were seen deepening their understanding and putting into practice what they learned in training by consciously playing games on various court sizes!
Kashima Antlers Soccer School is currently holding game courses like this one, designed to deepen soccer understanding, at the Kashima, Kamisu, and Itako schools!
Free trials are also available, so please join us!!

[May 16th (Sat) Parent-Child Soccer Class in Kashima]
The "Parent-Child Soccer Class in Kashima" was held at the Kashima Antlers Clubhouse Futsal Court for elementary school students from 1st to 6th grade.
In the parent-child soccer class, we focused on collaborative passing and dribbling between parents and children, as well as competitive shooting and 1-on-1 drills!
Many parents commented that while they thought they could do more just by watching the school, it was surprisingly difficult when they actually played soccer themselves. We also felt the pride of parents who didn't want to lose, and the event was held in a very positive atmosphere!
In the final match, parents played against children!
The parent team won in both the 1st and 2nd-grade division and the 3rd to 6th-grade division!
We will continue to hold parent-child soccer class events and parent-child soccer at Match Day Festivals!
Come and get active with the whole family!
[May 17th (Sun) Soccer Class in Kashima]
A "Soccer Class in Kashima" was held at the Kashima Antlers Clubhouse Futsal Court for kids (preschoolers and kindergarteners) and elementary school students in 1st and 2nd grade.
The kids' soccer class focused on developing movement skills and ball-handling, with themes of getting used to the ball and enjoying soccer.
The soccer class for 1st and 2nd graders focused on dribbling training to handle the ball as desired, and 1-on-1 drills, with an emphasis on evading opponents!
Both groups improved their skills while enjoying soccer, making progress even in a short time!
The Kashima school holds classes daily at the Clubhouse Futsal Court!
Free trials are currently underway!
