On October 2nd (Wednesday), the players visited various shopping districts in Tokyo that support and cheer for FC Tokyo's activities, such as displaying streetlight flags and match announcement posters. This year, we conducted the "Player Shopping District Tour" again.
This activity has been continuously carried out since 2001, and this year marks the 18th implementation.

The top team players were divided into 14 groups and visited over 50 shopping districts in the city.
In addition to expressing gratitude for your ongoing support, the players interacted with many people at events such as autograph sessions, feeling the thoughts of the local community and renewing their determination.
Thank you to all the shopping district members who cooperated and to everyone who gathered. We appreciate your continued support for FC Tokyo.

◇Kiichi YAJIMA Comment
"Through this activity, I once again felt that Tokyo is supported by many people. I strongly felt the desire from everyone I interacted with for us to win, so I want to fight in our own way on the pitch and deliver victory."

◇Tsuyoshi WATANABE's Comment
"I was surprised to see so many people passionately supporting us in various places during this visit to the shopping district. Just feeling that there are people cheering for us nearby gives us strength, and to ensure that we don't take this for granted, I would like the players' association to increase such activities more in the future."
