The "burning" season is here again! This match will be held on July 20th, and to power through the summer of 2025, some of Antlers' toughest players will host a "Men's Festival" to get everyone fired up.
This year, Naomichi Ueda, Kei Chinen, Yuma Suzuki, and Leo Ceara, a quartet of Antlers' toughest players, will lead the charge and get everyone "burning" for the summer! We have a comment from Naomichi Ueda, the representative of the Men's Festival, about this year's members!
■Comment from Player Ueda (Updated June 23rd)
"I searched the world for people suitable for the Men's Festival, and this year, I'm having Leo (Ceara) join us. We've got a lineup that even makes me feel like my position as the representative of the Men's Festival is in jeopardy. I want to show my 'manliness' and not lose to Leo."
Additionally, we are preparing many special events suitable for the Men's Festival on the day of the match. Details will be announced later on this page and in the "Matchday Guide." Please come to the stadium and passionately support the players!
