"Seeing" sport in Kochi
Many people who like sports should have watched games played by professional teams such as baseball and soccer. In Kochi Prefecture, you have the opportunity to watch games of professional teams active in independent leagues. In 2022, the Japan Cycle League, a road race competition with high-standard roads, was held for the first time in Japan, and became a hot topic.
Not just a game, but a local team.
"Kochi Fighting Dogs" won the overall championship of the Shikoku Island League in 2022, and in the past, Kyuko Fujikawa and Manny Ramirez have been enrolled in the Kochi Fighting Dogs. "Kochi United SC" is also focusing on nurturing juniors while playing an active role in the JFL aiming for the J League. It is also active in local activities and is a very close team. In Kochi Prefecture, there are not many opportunities to watch sports, but their home battles are held in Kochi as well.
