We visited the Kansai Student Championships!!

Hello.

It's already the height of summer heat.

The cicadas are chirping and it's getting even hotter...

Let's take care of our health so that we don't succumb to the heat!!

Well, the Fukuoka World Aquatics Championships was in full swing, but the Kansai Student Championships was also held, so I'd like to share with you what it was like!!

This will be a match to determine the No. 1 university student in Kansai!

Each university in division 1, 2, and 3 was seen swimming desperately for their team in order to make it into the top ranks.

There was a lot of drama, some tears and some laughter.

Some universities require athletes to wear gowns in the first division finals.

There was also a high-five, something that is unique to the Kansai Intercollegiate Championships!!

Swimmers who continue to swim at university level are really cool.

I really felt that the manager, coaches, and supervisors were all united and committed to this match.

I'll also be posting blogs about my upcoming matches, so please look forward to them!

I will also be posting about practice equipment on my blog, so please stay tuned!
