The much-anticipated
Nadeshiko Girls Soccer Clinic, organized in collaboration with the
Japan Women's Soccer League, will take place on
June 29, 2024, at the
Yamato Nadeshiko Stadium in Kanagawa. This initiative, spearheaded by
Plenus Co., Ltd., aims to empower young girls through sports and nutrition education.
Founded in 2004 and headquartered in
Ginza, Chuo Ward, Plenus operates several popular food outlets, including

The June 29 clinic invites girls aged
6 to 15 years to kickstart their soccer journey, whether they are trying the sport for the first time or seeking to refine their existing skills. Participants will experience a range of activities including dribbling, passing, and shooting, while also engaging in mini-games coached by professional players from the Nadeshiko League.
Moreover, this event emphasizes the importance of
nutrition linked to sports performance. Alongside soccer training, Plenus will conduct educational sessions on healthy eating, making it a holistic experience aimed at enhancing both physical fitness and nutritional awareness among young athletes.
