The Japan Blind Soccer Championship was held, with Japan aiming to win a medal at the Paris Paralympic Games. Blind soccer is played with five players per team, with visually impaired players other than the goalkeeper wearing eye masks and relying on the sound of a metal-filled ball and the shouts of a guide as they aim for the goal.
"Free Bird Mejirodai" won for the second time in two tournaments, beating "Paperecial Shinagawa" 3-1.
