JFA Challenge Game You're the next fantasista! 35th player passed Stage 20!
03 April 2014
The Stage 20 test for JFA Challenge Game "You're the next fantasista!" took place at Yashima Soccer Ground on Friday 21st March 2014.
It was Saito Taiga, 12, who challenged the test.
He showed a nervous look on his face because he had extra observers around. The test was held together with the team graduation ceremony of his club, Yashima SSS. All players from first graders at primary schools to players at nearby junior high school clubs as well as their parents were watching Taiga's challenge.
He didn't have any difficulty in showing off his dribbles & turns and hand-using technique, and as the last task he had to lift up a ball and do some juggling.
He passed it, too, on his first attempt.
Strong wind made bystanders worried, but he was so consistent and made no mistake for the Stage 20 test.
Taiga was awarded a Japan national team's uniform, certification and gold badge.
