Primary Use Cases: Employee training / Internal sports days / Team building / Cross-departmental networking / New employee training / Community events / Networking projects at schools and educational sites, etc.

Background

In recent years, companies and organizations have shown increasing interest in experiential content aimed at promoting communication across departments and generations, health management, and team building.

On the other hand, traditional sports events sometimes made it difficult for everyone to enjoy equally due to differences in athletic experience or high barriers to participation.

YOU.FO features a fair competitive culture that prohibits contact play and is based on self-judging. It is easy for beginners to pick up, and because communication naturally arises while connecting passes, it is a highly compatible content for 'communication-generating sports' in corporate training and internal events.

Comment from Japan YOU.FO Association

"YOU.FO is a sport that values not just winning or losing, but also connecting passes, trusting teammates, and calling out to each other. Through its introduction to PLAY+., we hope to expand opportunities for more people to experience YOU.FO in corporate training, internal events, and community networking settings."

Future Outlook

The Japan YOU.FO Association will leverage this introduction to PLAY+. to expand opportunities for experiencing YOU.FO in various settings, including corporate training, internal sports days, community events, educational institutions, and media projects.

We are also accepting inquiries regarding interviews, trial sessions, and event implementation. We will continue to promote the appeal of YOU.FO to companies and organizations considering new internal communication content or team-building measures.
