Masamitsu TASAKI (Tochigi Prefecture School Children Badminton Federation Chairman)
There were many close contests, so we want to praise the players who did not give up until the very end.
We hope the players who managed to win through these matches can do their best at the finals.
The tournament became more exciting thanks to the support from Daihatsu, so we feel very grateful.
It is not normally possible to display banners at the prefecture tournament so it was really great that we could do this time.
Taking photos with the banners behind the players helped to enliven the event.

For all of the participating staff, it was the first time we got to see badminton matches. We were pleased to have been able to support all the players with intent look as well all the family members.
We will continue to support all of you as we look forward to seeing the future Olympic players emerge from this ABC Badminton Tournament prefectural qualifying round.
