Shin FUZIMOTO (Tokushima Prefecture School Children Badminton Federation Chairman)
I believe that Daihatsu’s sponsorship of the tournament is a great help to all the primary school players in Japan.
Thanks to the distribution of cheering balloons and drinks, the supporting family members and players all came together to create an atmosphere that was so splendid that you wouldn’t think it was just the prefectural qualifying rounds.
We hope that we can develop as many badminton players as possible within the prefecture so that we can aim towards the national or world class level.
- We felt an energy and strength that made it hard to believe they are just primary school students. Seeing the expressions of the players when they won or lost also made us felt deeply moved. We hope you aim for victory and create some great memories at the main national tournament on August 10. We will continue our support for the ABC Badminton National Primary School Tournament.
