UENO Yuki
Thanks to the support of many people, I was able to make it this far. I feel a great deal of pride and responsibility in representing Japan, and I hope to try my best to live up to the expectations of the people around me. I intend to show my gratitude to everyone through our performance, results and by grabbing the title of best in the world. Thank you for your support.

Because of the support from the people around me, my efforts have been fruitful and I was chosen for the national team. I will appreciate the environment around me, become one with my team, and bring back first place! I hope to see supporters from TUFS at the championship.
ICHIKAWA Takahiro
This is my first time on the national team, and I am still fumbling around a bit, but I am working hard with my upperclassmen and coach, so no matter what we will win first place! Please come out to support us at the Championships.
