Day 3 of the U-12 Soccer Festival in Kijimadaira.

The morning walk took place in a mystical landscape shrouded in fog.

After that, I had a hearty breakfast in preparation for the match.

This accommodation is well-equipped to handle allergies, and for children who need assistance,

They were using a method of handing over the prepared meal while confirming face-to-face.

The tournament has entered the 2nd Round starting today.

Based on the results of the last match, we absolutely cannot lose to the team that defeated us.

We cannot afford to lose to the team we just beat this time.

They were playing hard even though signs of fatigue were showing.

We all had beef bowl for lunch.

Many children finished their food in no time and asked for seconds!

In the afternoon, we had a nature experience, where we caught fish.

In the very cold river, catching the fish that are swimming around, those who managed to catch them and those who couldn't,

There were various children I didn't want to touch much, but I think the temperature of the cold water and the feel of the fish provided a very good experience.

I also had the fish I caught grilled and eaten on the spot.

Everyone was surprised by its deliciousness!

Dinner was luxurious with shabu-shabu and hamburgers,

It seems that some of the children who ate one fish were full.

After that, for the final night's entertainment, we held a bingo tournament.

The grand prize is a pair of shoes signed by the player!

I think the child who won will have a lifelong memory.

Tomorrow will be the final day.

I want to complete the tournament until the end and return to Tokyo safely.
