It has been decided that I am going to be employed by CAC Corporation through Asunavi, which is operated by JOC. I am very pleased to join the company, which has provided strong support for the sport of Boccia. My new environment will allow me to devote myself more than ever to competitions and activities for increasing the popularity of the sport, and I am very grateful that I am able to join a company that has such a strong connection with Boccia. I strive to be a team member in the Tokyo Paralympics in 2020 to compete for the gold medal in the team games and for another medal in the individual games. In addition to my activities as a Boccia player, I would also like to grow as a member of society. |
