At the end
The IBARAKI Next Generation Cup 2022 will be held as a “nurturing Ibaraki” project by four teams: U-18 Japan National Team, U-20 Kanto University Selection, U-22 ALL IBARAKI, and 2023 National Sports Ibaraki Prefecture Men’s Selection.
The U-18 Japan National Team’s trip to Spain in November, which ended with three consecutive wins, is still fresh in our minds.
I am looking forward to seeing how each of them inspires and enhances each other in this tournament as well.
Good luck to the 20 people who have been invited!
