We are pleased to announce that applications for the 2023 season Academy Support Club began on Tuesday, November 1, 2022, at 5:00 PM.
As part of the renewal of the 2023 season SÓCIO and Fan Club membership system, we have newly established the Academy Support Club. This is the first time in the club's history that a fan club category has been created to support the Academy (youth organization).
Since the 2021 season, Antlers have been selling "Academy Support Seats," and the revenue from these tickets has been used to strengthen the Academy. Furthermore, through the crowdfunding project "Antlers' Future Together" conducted in 2021, we received warm support and cooperation, enabling us to construct the dedicated Academy ground, "Antlers Academy Field." And for the 2023 season, we have decided to establish the Academy Support Club to further strengthen the Academy and enhance and expand information dissemination.
All members who join will receive various benefits through the official Antlers app. In addition to the digital distribution of "ACADEMY FREAKS," the Academy version of the monthly "FREAKS" magazine, three times a year, members can enjoy exclusive online events and online live and archived broadcasts of matches. We will deliver various information, such as the struggles of players who strive daily to be promoted to the top team, the results of each team, and the efforts and aspirations of the staff.
The Academy Support Club can be held concurrently with SÓCIO, Season Ticket, FREAKS, and Junior categories. Membership fees will be used for the activities and strengthening of the Academy, so we ask for your continued support for the players who will carry the future of Antlers!

About Antlers Academy
Antlers Academy aims to "produce main players for the top team" and "create a state where Antlers is a part of daily life," operating with three core branches in Kashima, Norte (Hitachi), and Tsukuba, striving to be a familiar youth organization rooted in the community.From Youth (high school age) at the top, to three Junior Youth teams (Kashima, Norte, Tsukuba) for middle school age, and three Junior teams (Kashima, Norte, Tsukuba) for elementary school age, players train daily with the dream of being promoted to the top team in the future. Furthermore, to establish a "community-based player development system" that nurtures players from across Ibaraki Prefecture, we operate schools at 18 locations within the prefecture and one in Choshi, Chiba Prefecture, totaling 19 schools.
In recent years, we have also actively appointed former club players as coaching staff, led by Technical Advisor Mitsuo Ogasawara, focusing on inheriting the Antlers style.
