Mr. Danbara is in the center of the back row.The disliked members were ignored, but some were liked and exempt from the disciplinary 20km run.
“You guys are sitting here.”
At that time, Kazutoshi Danbara (49), who was in his twenties, pointed to a corner of the ground. For some reason, a large amount of pebbles were scattered in the place where the members were supposed to be picking up stones.
To the members by a coach in his 30sassaultWas discovered in AprilShugakukanHigh school (Kumamoto prefecture). On May 17, the coach was dismissed from disciplinary action, and Mr. Danbara, who was the director of the department, submitted a letter of resignation and was accepted.
“Shugakukan is thanks to the nationally renowned director Danbara.soccerNearly 100 students gather every year in the club alone. With tuition and miscellaneous expenses, we earn regarding 100 million yen a year.Director Danbara is said to have more power than the principal, and due to the violence of Director Danbara himself.Power harassmentThe school mightn’t immediately dismiss Danbara even following it was reported. “(Soccer writer)
Mr. Danbara said at a press conference on May 5 that he had “never seen” the violence by his coach. Mr. A, who was a member of the soccer club at Meitoku Gijuku High School (Kochi Prefecture), who started his career as a leader in the late 1990s, is indignant at this statement as “absolutely a lie.”
“I’ve seen Mr. Danbara kicking players on the ground and in the dormitory many times, and Mr. Danbara has controlled the members even with indirect violence.” (Mr. A, same below. )
The soccer ground of Meitoku Gijuku, which takes an hour by car from Kochi City. Here, it is said that there was an opening corporal punishment by Mr. Danbara.
“When everyone was talking,’Why are there pebbles?’, Mr. Danbara said,’Sit right there.’ The pebbles dig into the shin and it was an unbearable pain. It was left for regarding an hour. Later, Mr. Danbara came and made each person “confess” regarding the violation of school rules. “
At that time, the sports department of Meitoku Gijuku was a class in the morning and club activities from 13:00 to 18:00.
“It was evening when I finished sitting, and regarding 30 members mightn’t move because of pain. I’m sure I was able to sit up for more than 3 hours.”
Mr. Danbara said that he had the members monitor each other and encouraged the notification. The teaching at Shugakukan, which deprives students of their freedom and puts them under control, was cultivated at this predecessor school.
“Mr. Danbara points out things like’You have a mobile phone without permission’and’Did you play mahjong last Thursday?’ It was information I didn’t understand. Everyone was always scared because if Mr. Danbara hated him, he would be ignored or he wouldn’t play the game. “
Mr. Danbara joined the Ground Self-Defense Force from Tokai University Fifth High School (currently Fukuoka High School attached to Tokai University). He contributed to the victory of the National Self-Defense Forces Soccer Tournament and was invited to Meitoku Gijuku.
“The current profile of Mr. Danbara says’Director’since 1997, but he was a coach at first. When Mr. Danbara arrived, Director Y, who had just been assigned the previous year, and Mr. N, a Brazilian coach, I was there. “
Mr. N joined Meitoku Gijuku in 1996. After playing for a professional club in Brazil, he has a track record of coaching and scouting in Brazil, and was a leader who can handle detailed Japanese soccer.
“Originally, Mr. N had a practice menu, but following Mr. Danbara arrived, we had to take turns doing the practice menu for two people, and we were very confused. At that time, suddenly It was announced that “Mr. N has quit”. At that time, Mr. Danbara was a close driver of the principal, and among the members, “Mr. Danbara took in the principal and decapitated Mr. N.” It was said. “
At that time, it was rare for a high school to invite soccer coaches from overseas, and many members entered the cross-border school to receive guidance from Mr. N. It is said that nearly 10 members have dropped out of school because Mr. N quit.
“Furthermore, at the initiative of Mr. Danbara, I decided to take a questionnaire to the members. The purpose was to solicit the opinions of the members, but I wanted to make Y write dissatisfaction and lower the evaluation. It was clear. If I, who was longing for Director Y, didn’t submit the questionnaire, Mr. Danbara would ignore me for a month. “
Then, in 2000, when Mr. Y retired as the director and Mr. Danbara became the director, Meitoku Gijuku made his first appearance in the national high school soccer championship. Although he lost in the third round, he won the penalty shootout once morest the previous champion, Funabashi Municipal High School (Chiba Prefecture).
“I think it’s true that I got stronger by running thoroughly and putting it in the mold. Mr. Danbara as a coach must have been capable, but if anything happened,” As a “joint and several liability”, I was only afraid every day when I imposed a sitting position and an air chair on the members. “
Mr. Danbara suddenly transferred to Shugakukan in 2001.
“There must have been a desire to get ahead in the high school soccer world, but I quit so suddenly that some people slammed me as” running away at night. “
Mr. A, who was a leading player, was introduced to the university soccer club by Mr. Danbara, but took off the spike when he retired from club activities.
“Soccer is no longer fun at all, and I absolutely didn’t like playing soccer with Mr. Danbara’s introduction.”
I asked Meitoku Gijuku regarding the illegal corporal punishment and guidance of Mr. Danbara at that time, but refused to receive the questionnaire, saying, “(Mr. Danbara) has retired a long time ago, so I can’t answer.”
I asked Shugakukan if he was appointed following understanding the violent guidance at his predecessor school, but he did not respond by the deadline.
It seems that the high school soccer world, which has treated Mr. Danbara well, has no self-cleaning ability.
