Day 1 of the England Expedition
On this expedition, we have received an invitation from the England Premier League to participate in the "Premier League U15 International Tournament 2018".

Due to age restrictions for eligibility, participation will be with the combined team of U-15 Fukagawa and U-15 Musashino 2nd and 3rd graders.

Matches against strong clubs from England and other invited clubs will be a valuable experience. The team will unite and fight for victory.

Arrived at London Heathrow Airport after approximately 23 hours, including transit in Bangkok, Thailand.
We had breakfast on our way to the hotel where we will be staying during the expedition period from Heathrow Airport.
After that, we conducted training at the ground of Fulham FC, which belongs to the Premier League. The players are very interested in the wonderful facilities, which include 5 natural grass pitches and 2 artificial turf pitches (one of which is a dome).

Due to the fatigue from long travel on this day, the training focused on a menu prioritizing recovery of condition.

In the evening meeting, since it was a joint team, each player had their own self-presentation time.

Tomorrow, we will have one more day of training in preparation for the tournament.
