[Day 1 Activity Report] France Expedition 2026

School Report

At the FC Tokyo Soccer and Futsal School, 8 selected students will participate in Europoussins 2026 held in France, following the events two years ago and last year!

We gathered at Haneda Airport on the night of Tuesday, June 2, and after about a 14-hour flight, arrived at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.

There were several immigration checkpoints, so it took some time to get through, but we safely met up with Coco-san, who will be taking care of us during the tournament.
After that, we took the TGV (train) to Rennes Station, and from there, we arrived at the accommodation by car.

We had pilaf for lunch, and then immediately took a bus to Dinan for sightseeing.

During the journey, posters and banners for the tournament were displayed everywhere, and we could truly feel the welcoming atmosphere.

Dinant is a town that has preserved the beauty of the Middle Ages, and we also entered a church where the children were deeply moved.

Also, the Dynamo Kyiv junior team from Ukraine, participating in this tournament, was sightseeing in Dinan at the same time, so we had an exchange with them.

After that, we returned to the accommodation and had dinner prepared by Coach Tsukamoto and Coach Sakashita.

As soon as they finished eating, they got up from their seats saying, "Let's do ○○~," but they had been instructed by Coach Tsukamoto to practice "taking care of ourselves by ourselves," which they are learning on this expedition.

Tomorrow, we will go sightseeing at Mont Saint-Michel, and afterwards, we will also visit a local farm.
