USF Sports Camp in Shiga, Autumn 2016
The purpose of the accommodation-type sports camp is to promote communication and international exchange through sports with participating children and volunteer staff. By experiencing multiple competitions, participants are exposed to the diversity of sports and grow their interest and understanding of sports and culture.
At the camp in Shiga prefecture, four sports are held: soccer, basketball, ultimate and flag football. We invited a former Japanese national team player as a lecturer to deliver a spectacular demonstration, and we all enjoyed sports while learning the basic movements and rules. We also communicated by playing popular games from overseas and experiencing traditional sports overseas during sports lectures.
