The 9th Legend Festa (May 24) Event Report

On Sunday, May 24th, we held the "9th Legend Festa" at Mercari Stadium.
On the day, Zico Club Advisor, and Antlers OB Yasushi Endo and coach Mitsutaka Nakamura attended, holding autograph sessions, photo opportunities, and parent-child soccer clinics!

Approximately 60 parent-child pairs from elementary grades 1-6 participated in the event.

During the soccer clinic, the legends were right there, offering encouragement and direct advice on each play.
Through training and games where parents and children worked together, it was a special and unique experience to witness the legends' skills and way of thinking.

The children and their guardians were all very serious, observing the plays shown right before their eyes and listening to the words spoken to them.
It was a valuable experience to stand on the same pitch as their idols and chase the ball together!

And in the final game, the legends also joined the pitch and played together with the participants!
Skilful techniques and captivating plays were constantly shown, and the venue was filled with excitement.
The synchronized combinations and brilliant pass exchanges with the participants created a valuable game experience unique to "Legend Festa," where they could play alongside their idols.

On the day, a stadium tour of Mercari Stadium was also held!
It was an opportunity to learn about the club's history and the stadium's charm while visiting areas that are normally inaccessible.

Thank you to everyone who participated!
We plan to continue holding special events where you can play with the Kashima Antlers legends and experience the "legends" of the Antlers, so please join us!
