About 4v4

The 4v4 initiative, conceptualized by soccer icon Keisuke Honda, aims to enhance the soccer landscape in Japan, focusing specifically on youth development. This format hopes to entertain children while instilling essential values such as critical thinking and teamwork. The unique rules allow for a 10-minute match with free substitutions and a 20-second shot clock. Goalkeepers also engage actively in offensive plays, presenting a dynamic style of play unlike any other.

By eliminating traditional coaching roles from the bench and encouraging repeated attempts instead of single losses, children can enjoy a more inclusive experience while developing their skills throughout the season. The goal is clear: nurture future soccer stars, enhancing Japan's soccer scene as a whole.
