At the Karasuyama (Tue) School, newly opened this fiscal year, this was the first player visit.

During the question time, questions came from the Kindergarten class such as "Please teach me how to shoot!"
"Please teach me how to dribble!"

Motoki NAGAKURA explained while actually demonstrating plays in response to the questions!

During the dribbling lesson, as the children chased after NAGAKURA, a natural competition for the ball began, creating a lively atmosphere♪

In the 1st and 2nd grade class, questions such as "How many times could you do juggling when you were in 1st or 2nd grade?"
"What is your favorite type of shot?"
"Which team did you come from?" were asked.

There were school students who also knew the team he previously belonged to, and Motoki NAGAKURA was surprised!

Also, Motoki NAGAKURA demonstrated his specialty—a shot following a kick feint—and gave advice including key points such as "aiming the shot seriously"
and "moving the ball with the sole of the foot"!

He also shared tips on the toe-kick shot, which is still fresh in everyone's memory. The school students said, "Our toes hurt!" but they enjoyed the challenge of trying out a new technique♪

He mentioned that he has no futsal experience and made instant decisions based on his instincts.
It was an opportunity to feel the sensibility of a striker up close!

At the end, Motoki NAGAKURA carefully signed FC Tokyo goods brought by each school student.

The school students were nervous but clearly expressed their gratitude♪

Also, Motoki NAGAKURA distributed the Amino Vital Jelly Drink "Guts Gear," kindly provided by AJINOMOTO CO., INC., to the school students!

At the FC Tokyo Soccer and Futsal School, we will continue to support the growth of children through unique experiences only FC Tokyo can offer!
