Day 1

Today, the first-year students of U-15 Fukagawa are on a trip to Vietnam.

In this expedition, we will participate in two tournaments: the 6th Vietnam Japan International Youth Cup U-13 and the "1st 2024 Son Lamgean International Youth Soccer Tournament". We aim to compete as a team in a foreign land and further develop our individual strength.

Dec 11 (Wed) 23:30 Meet at Haneda Airport. Depart Japan at 1:30 on the 12th (Thu) with parents seeing us off.

After a flight of about 6 hours, we arrived in Vietnam at around 5:30 local time. We then took a bus to the hotel.

The players will train at the match venue, just a 5-minute walk from the hotel, without even catching their breath. With a temperature of 30℃ and high humidity, the players endured the opposite heat of Japan, sweating for about an hour with stretching, running, and ball exercises to prepare for tomorrow's match.

After lunch, they participated in the opening ceremony of the 6th Vietnam Japan International Youth Cup U-13 tournament and were seen actively interacting with the Vietnamese team players next to them.

Next, I watched the opening game. The local team, Megabex Binzun, played against Kawasaki Frontale U-15 Todoroki, and other Japanese teams also joined in to support and liven up the entire venue.

The match will finally begin tomorrow. Two group league matches will be held.
Tonight, I will go to bed early to avoid feeling tired from a long journey and training tomorrow.
