The summer national high school baseball, which will start at Koshien Stadium on the 6th of next month, will be a combination lottery for the players of the representative school for the first time in three years.
The Takano Ren = Japan High School Baseball Federation and others held a steering committee for the tournament on the 6th.
Among them, we decided to gather the players of the representative school for the first time in three years at the festival hall in Kita-ku, Osaka for the combination lottery of the tournament to be held on the 3rd of next month.
The tournament was canceled and last year it was online.
The number of people attending is limited to 22 people per team.
Last year, the opening ceremony was reduced to a form in which athletes wore masks and marched from the outfield to the infield, but this time, while banning voices, one lap around the venue. It means that it is supposed to proceed as usual.
In addition, since the spread of the new coronavirus infection, the infection within the team has spread at national competitions including Senbatsu, and there have been cases of withdrawing from participation, but at this competition, even if it is judged to be an outbreak, We have decided to consider measures such as changing the game schedule and replacing players.
