The Japanese national team ace Yuko Ueno, who returned from a serious injury before the Japan Softball World Cup Japan Cup started in Gunma Prefecture on the 30th, said, “I want to play a step forward for the Tokyo Olympics.” I spoke with enthusiasm.
The Japan Cup, which begins in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture on the 30th, is an international tournament in which four teams from Japan and the United States, and Taiwan and the Czech Republic participate.
Next year ’s Tokyo Olympics will be the last official match against the biggest rival America, as well as an important opportunity to narrow down the membership.
On the 29th, the practice of the Japanese national team was released, and after the 37-year-old ace Yukiko Ueno, who had a broken chin after hitting the ball in April, returned to the representative from the injury, before the press for the first time. I showed up.
We resumed the light catch ball from June and now we are working on lighter menus such as knocking with a relaxed expression on the 29th because it is in the same state as before injuries.
Director Utsuki Reika said, “I want pitcher Ueno to throw back one inning tomorrow and regain the sense of the game.”
In addition, pitcher Ueno was eager to say, “I will put my body back before it was thrown firmly, so how can I handle it afterwards? I want to play a step forward for the Tokyo Olympics”.
