[What I learned from Hiroshima Dragonflies U18]
In terms of deepening my understanding of the rules of team defense and my role in design plays, I have improved my tactical understanding and ability to think and play on my own. I also learned that the role of motivating the team is not just for the captain, but that everyone must always play with this in mind.
[Message to juniors]
Playing in a youth team means you can play with a high mindset. In addition, you will be able to set a goal of “I want to become a professional” and have a concrete image of that goal. The youth team provides an environment where you can grow not only as a player but also as a person. Please come and try out.
