Charespo! TOKYO

Introducing the event!30 “Charespo! TOKYO”

On Christmas Eve, December 30, 12, we held the participatory sports event "Charespo! TOKYO" at the Tokyo International Forum.

In addition to experiencing Paralympic competitions such as wheelchair basketball and boccia, participants were able to experience a variety of sports and have fun, including recreational sports and a new type of competitive experience using VR and the much-talked-about e-sports!

In addition, many guests, including top athletes and members of "Kamen Joshi", made the event lively.

From here, I will briefly report on the day's events along with photos.
