State of the previous fiscal year

 Parent and child rugby classes were held on Saturday, December 10, 2023 and Saturday, March 17, 2024. 
 Starting with warm-up with parents and children, we practiced pass using a ball. Even if you are struggling with an unfamiliar elliptical ball at first, even beginners can throw a screw pass (a pass that rotates and throws the ball) with the easy-to-understand and careful guidance of the instructors!
 In the second half, we played touch rugby divided by age. Touch rugby replaces rugby tackles with touch, so anyone can enjoy it safely, regardless of age or gender.
 In the participant questionnaire after the event, "Adults were able to move and enjoy themselves together", "Yoshito Yoshida's careful guidance was very attractive", "Many (staff) people looked at I was grateful for the advice and voice calls, and more than 90% of respondents answered "very satisfied" and "satisfied".
