Launching a support project for wheelchair tennis player Yui Kamiji, in our first collaboration with Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture.

Starting from April 1st (Monday), we will be launching a support project for wheelchair tennis player Yui Kamiji in collaboration with Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture.

Our company established a partnership agreement with player Yui Kamiji in January 2022 and launched the support project “YUIKAMIJI ROAD TO PARIS”. We have been working on initiatives to promote the development of wheelchair tennis industry and to energize parasports, such as supporting Kamiji's match information dissemination and video editing, as well as developing the official mascot character "Go! Karmy".

Through collaboration with the hometown of player Kamiji, which is Akashi City, this time, we will work to promote support for Kamiji while gaining the cooperation of the entire local community,
increase interest in wheelchair tennis and contribute to the popularization of wheelchair tennis.
