Kawasaki City will host a 'Flag Football Experience Clinic' on Wednesday, August 19, where elementary school students in the city can interact and play with players from 'Fujitsu Frontiers' and 'OrientalBio Silverstars,' top-tier teams in Japan's American football league.

Flag football is a safe, accessible version of American football, designed so anyone can enjoy it. Instead of tackling, players remove a flag attached to the opponent's waist. This sport is already part of physical education in Kawasaki City elementary schools. Participants will learn passing techniques directly from professional players and play together—an unforgettable summer experience.

Let's create strategies and play a game!

A rare chance to play alongside professional athletes!
