Hello everyone,

Last week Wakayama had a “once-in-100-years” rain last week. I hope your house, family, and friends are all safe. Especially in Kainan City, there were many places affected by flooding.

Another result was that many sports tournamnets scheduled for that weekend had to be moved. At school, our tennis club finished first and on schedule. Nice job! Also, our volleyball club had to wait a couple days, but they also beat our longtime rivals to qualify for interhigh. Finally, our basketball club is in the middle of playing, and we will find out their result tomorrow.

I am looking forward to going to cheer on the baskeyball team tomorrow. I hope they do their best and make it a “clean sweep” for Shin-ai sports teams!
