On May 1, prior to the second Tokyo International Youth (U-14) Football Tournament (May 2 – 5), the Tokyo Governor’s pep rally took place under a clear blue sky at the Metropolitan Komazawa Olympic Park General Sports Ground. The ceremony started with Governor Ishihara kicking-off the ball, which was then passed around by the junior athletes (one player from each of the 12 teams participating in the tournament) and the Egyptian Ambassador, before being brought to a close with a shot by Mr. Tsuyoshi Kitazawa, a former professional football player.
