Den-en-chofu High School’s Sports Festival
On the first weekend of June, Den-en-chofu High School holds its annual Sports Festival.
The Sports Festival is an event in which students from all three grade levels come together
to compete with each other to win an award. Many teachers and students work hard
to prepare for this event every year.
Students not only cheer each other on during the various sports activities, but they also wear
their self-designed class T-shirts with creative slogans and pictures!
It is a day filled with excitement, competition, and lots of fun!
Some examples of activities done on this day are tug of war, jump rope, relay races,
and a special game only seen here in Japan called, “Kibasen”.
It is a kind of game where one student, supported by three students,must take off the
“hachimaki” or in this school, the swimming cap of another student from the rival team.
It is a very intense but enjoyable game!
The Sports Festival is a wonderful event and I wish that schools in the U.S. could have
an event like this.
I had a lot of fun with everyone and I will remember this day as one of my
favorite memories at Den-en-chofu High School!
