MetLife Life Hosts 'Title Partner Commemoration DAYS' in Kobe

MetLife Life Insurance Co., led by CEO Dirk Osteen, is set to host a special event titled 'Title Partner Commemoration DAYS' at Kobe City Central Gymnasium on October 25th and 26th, 2025. During this two-day event, the company will sponsor all five matches of the 13th round of the Women's F-League. The timing coincides with the 20th anniversary of MetLife’s Kobe site, an essential part of their customer service.

This year marks a significant achievement for MetLife as they became the title partner for both the men's and women's leagues within the Japan Futsal League. The company is dedicated to revitalizing local communities alongside the F-League. To express gratitude to the local residents who have consistently supported them, MetLife is excited to offer a range of special programs in Kobe, which includes an area for children, food trucks, and special guest appearances. This family-friendly event aims to engage sports lovers, students, and community members alike.

As the title partner of F-League, MetLife aims to promote healthier lifestyles through sports and strengthen community bonds, laying the foundation for a better future for society. They extend a warm invitation for everyone to join this event and support the teams.

Event Highlights

The 'Title Partner Commemoration DAYS' will take place during a crucial final stage of the season where teams are divided into upper six and lower five based on their regular-season performance. Adding to the excitement, the women's F-League has recently achieved its first victory at the Asian Games in May, boosting the morale of the players as they prepare for the upcoming world tournament. The atmosphere is growing even more electrifying, and teams look forward to rallying together with the local community's support.
