[For All Grades] Home Game Event Held at Verdy Match!
Sunday, May 10, 2026 Meiji Yasuda J1 Century Vision League Sec. 16 FC Tokyo vs Verdy, we held a home game event!
Warm-up Observation
The stadium was filled with more excitement than usual even before the players entered!
Especially when moving close to behind the goal, there were school students who were excited throughout by the supporters' cheers and atmosphere, cheering together with everyone.
In this match, we also conducted a warm-up observation together with the first-year players of U-15 Fukagawa, cheering on the players heading to the game and sending them passionate support!
I hope that the academy players we toured together will one day shine on the pitch at Ajinomoto Stadium!
It was a wonderful time where academy players and school students came together to cheer on the top team players!
Banner Walk Kids
At halftime, 2nd and 5th grade elementary school students from the school carried the FC Tokyo Soccer & Futsal School banner as they walked around the pitch!
Among the participants, there were children who were usually not at the same venue but seemed happy to reunite here with friends they met at events. It was encouraging to see older children supporting younger ones during practice.
Although we conceded a goal while moving, the children were very excited as they caught up with an equalizer scored by Sei MUROYA during banner practice!
Before halftime, TOKYO DOROMPA appeared and took commemorative photos with the school students!
I was impressed by the surprised expression, thinking, "It's this big!"
Although there were signs of slight nervousness, once it started, all the school students smiled and waved their hands as they circled the pitch.
The wind was a bit strong during the laps, but the coaches firmly held the banner together with us.
At the end, they shared wonderful impressions such as "I was able to finish with a smile!" and "I hope to have more friends to play soccer and futsal with!"
