FC Tokyo will hold the "FC Tokyo Soccer Skill Up Summer Clinic" for elementary school 5th and 6th graders.

In this clinic, we will conduct a passionate 4-day training with FC Tokyo Promotion Department coaches to help players grow into "players who understand and intentionally devise their positions to gain an advantage over their opponents and take the initiative", aiming for the FC Tokyo top team.

"Positional play" is the deliberate arrangement of one's position to gain an advantage in the game. By intentionally positioning oneself, players can take control in both offense and defense, and our staff will provide guidance with full effort to help them become players who can overwhelm their opponents.

Please check the following summary and apply.
