This event was carried out as part of our philosophy-based sponsorship activities (※) in collaboration with member companies of the ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB. It aligns with SDG 3, "Good Health and Well-being," aiming to promote active lifestyles by providing opportunities for sports, and thereby contributing to mental stability and addressing health issues.
The event was divided into morning and afternoon sessions, with 1,014 children participating after advance registration.
All participants received an original "KASHIMA ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB KIDS FESTIVAL" T-shirt.
Masashi Motoyama, Academy Scout, participated in this event as a special guest.
In addition, Koji Nakata, Pro Group Manager, and the youth staff also joined as support staff.
Players from Kashima Junior, Norte Junior Youth, and Youth teams also supported the event.
Before the games began, everyone warmed up together with a dance that doubled as calisthenics.
During the matches, the children passionately chased the ball with all their might.
With cheers from their parents, heated matches unfolded.
They celebrated goals with the supporting players and playfully interacted between games, constantly staying active.
Masashi Motoyama, Academy Scout, Koji Nakata, Pro Group Manager, and the youth staff also moved between courts, enjoying themselves with the children.
Three shops were set up in the stadium concourse, adding to the event's excitement.
The children enthusiastically chased the ball on the pitch at Kashima Stadium.
Thank you very much to everyone who participated and attended.
The ANTLERS BUSINESS CLUB will continue to engage in activities aimed at contributing to the community and society.
