ITO Masanori Coachs' comment

First of all, I’m extremely honoured to become the coach of the team. We aim to recapture the title of Asian champions in the 2017 AFC Championship. I would like to carry out my duty in pursuit of that aim.

As I heard there were many talented and enthusiastic players as well as coaches in women’s futsal, I look forward to working with them. Japan’s futsal is having something of a difficult time at the moment. Futsal has been supported with much popular enthusiasm. So I’d like to improve that once again with you all. I’ll nurture the Japan Women's Futsal National Team, so that we can lead it.

Your support for Japan Women's Futsal will be much appreciated.
