In order to inspire children and promote their healthy development and improve the level of soccer in the region, we are holding the "Hokusetsu District Gamba Cup Boys' and Girls' Soccer Tournament Supported by Dimps" with the cooperation of the soccer federations and associations of the seven cities and two towns in the Hokusetsu region and Dimps Co., Ltd.
This tournament started in 1997 and has become a dream stage for children every year. Ten teams representing each city and town enter the tournament, and in the preliminary league they are divided into two groups and play a round-robin tournament. The top teams from each group will compete in the final as an opening match for GAMBA OSAKA's home game. We will continue to hold this tournament in the future with the cooperation of many people.

Since 2009, with the cooperation of the Ibaraki Rose Lions Club, we have been visiting Naniwa Juvenile Detention Center in Ibaraki City. Through soccer and Q&A sessions, we hope to convey to the boys the struggles and setbacks they faced on their way to becoming a professional soccer player, as well as the mindset required for a professional soccer player, in the hope of helping them to reintegrate into society. This time, player ZHANG Ao Lin and coach Shota UEMURA participated.
During the question and answer session, in response to the question, "What do you keep in mind when bringing a team together?", he shared his experience, saying, "I try to think from the other person's perspective about each play or mistake that happens at that moment, and then offer my opinions and advice."
In the comments written by the students after the visit, many of them mentioned "thinking about things from the perspective of others," demonstrating that the purpose of this activity was achieved in addition to what was communicated through play.
In July, our long-standing activities were recognized and we received a letter of appreciation from the Minister of Justice as part of the "Brighter Society Campaign."

Stick soccer is a game of soccer in which players sit down, hold a stick, and aim for the goal, with the aim of preventing the need for nursing care. Because it can be played while sitting down, it is a lifelong universal sport that can be participated in by people who require nursing care due to old age, or people with disabilities.
