We are pleased to announce that Taichi HARA and Rei HIRAKAWA, players of our club, have been selected for the U-19 Japan national team for the Mexico expedition (September 2-13 in Mexico City).

□Taichi HARA Comment
"I am very happy to be selected for the U-19 Japan national team this time. This year, the AFC U-19 Championship will be held, which serves as the qualifier for the U-20 World Cup, so I want to fully demonstrate my strengths to be chosen for that squad. Additionally, it is a great opportunity to compete against overseas players, so I will do my best to contribute to my own growth!"

□Rei HIRAKAWA Comment

"I am honored to be selected for the U-19 Japan national team. I believe that continuing to be chosen for the national team is very important, so I will do my best to demonstrate my full potential during this expedition. Also, I think there will be competition within the team for the AFC U-19 Championship, but I want to express my value."
