[1.6 NEW BALANCE CUP決勝 帝京高 0-0 昌平高 時之栖裾野C]
The players were aware of the challenges and seriously worked on improvements to achieve results. Teikyo High School (Tokyo), which has the history of winning the most Thai championships after the war six times, won the tie with Shohei High School (Saitama) in the “NEW BALANCE CUP 2022 IN TOKINO SUMIKA” (“back championship”). FW Sota Ito (2nd year) and others lacked multiple mainstay candidates due to injuries, but the player who got the chance played with high motivation and became the top of the 36 participating teams.
The current second grader has experienced Prince League Kanto, Inter-High, and championship qualifying since the first year. Last year, most of the regulars were junior high school students, and they won the Inter-High for the first time in 10 years. 22 years when the member is the highest grade. While experience points are a great strength, it also requires the ability to push out rivals who are closing the gap. Among them, Teikyo is raising the team power by competition.
Team leader midfielder Yuki Oshikawa (2nd year) said, “(Currently) I don’t think it’s strange for anyone to come out. The players who are out are facing with a sense of crisis, so the quality of play is improving. I mean, I’m feeling more uplifted, “he nods.
Director Takeshi Hibi also highly appreciates the attitude of the players. “It’s good that there were guys saying’Let’s do it'(while there are a lot of injured people). It was the same in championship games, but it’s not that we can’t do it instead. , “Then, it’s no good”, they are trying to notice more than we (coaches). “
The championship, which was expected to participate for the first time in 12 years, was eliminated from the qualifying semi-finals due to the effects of injuries and poor physical condition. In order to create Teikyo, which is “strong no matter who comes out,” each is challenging the competition with strong motivation. Originally voluntary CB Tomoki Ota (2nd year) and CB Isao Tabata (2nd year) continued to defend stably, and Oshikawa and MF Haruki Tanaka (2nd year) moved with high quality and strength in the middle stage. Tokyo’s leading forward FW Saito Jito (2nd year) scored 6 goals in this tournament, and J’s attention left SB Irie Ryosuke (2nd year) and others also showed their features.
Following the runner-up “National Youth Invited Soccer Tournament-YOKOYAMA MEMORIAL CUP” at the end of the year, the “Back Championship” is also a result with content. Director Hibi evaluated that the year-end and New Year holidays were “meaningful for Teikyo,” and called for further evolution, saying, “We must be able to return the injured and compete again by February.” ..
In recent years, Teikyo has gathered players with a high base of “stop / kick”. It has changed to a team that holds the ball and breaks it with a flowing pass work with one touch as “likeness”. Director Hibi said, “It’s not good because I play beautiful soccer, but sometimes it’s muddy, but I have to acquire skills and high judgment (thinking about the future). I have to give it. “
This year is a year of competition, where new forms are shared and inherited, as well as motivation for growth and victory, and individual talent. Oshikawa admitted, “I’m practicing one-two or breaking in practice. (In this” back championship “), the results have been achieved.” In terms of deciding power. I think it is necessary to have the power to finish because there are some goals at the counter because I couldn’t make the final decision after going to a good place. ” Thoroughly demanding quality and winning team in the competition, it will surely shine on the national stage in 2010.
