Day 2 of our expedition to the Netherlands began with a walk near the hotel, enjoying the scenery that was different from Japan.
After that, we worked up a light sweat at a nearby park. We immediately put into practice one of the goals of this expedition, "interaction with people from other countries," by playing a game with boys who were kicking a ball nearby.
After having lunch at the tournament venue, we had a final adjustment session for about an hour and a half. The players, who had been in a relaxed mood in the morning, became serious as they prepared for the tournament starting tomorrow.

The venue has five natural grass pitches, two artificial turf pitches, 16 changing rooms, and a clubhouse with stands where food and drinks can be enjoyed. In addition, there is a warm, handmade welcome everywhere, mainly from local volunteers. There are also photos from previous years, as well as many banners announcing sponsors and the tournament.
