Summer Koshien alternative tournament decided to be held in Kanto Koshinetsu All prefectures June 18 18:21

An original tournament to replace the local national high school baseball tournament, which was canceled due to the new coronavirus, will be held in all cities and prefectures of Kanto Koshinetsu.

The unique competition that replaces the summer national high school baseball tournament is likely to be held in prefectures nationwide, and the Yamanashi Prefectural High School Baseball Federation will be held from the 23rd to the 14th of next month on the afternoon of the 25th. I decided to do it on a schedule.

As a result, all 10 cities and prefectures in Kanto Koshinetsu will hold their own competition from the middle of next month to the end of August.

▽ The earliest start will be on Ibaraki prefecture on the 11th of next month,
▽ Tokyo will be on the 18th, and
▽ The latest will be on August 8th in Saitama prefecture.

As for the tournament system, the Tochigi Prefecture Takanoren changed from the exchange game where only one game is played by each team to the tournament system on the 24th, so all 10 prefectures will be played in the tournament system.

Due to the schedule,
▽Tochigi prefecture will finish at the best eight,
▽Kanagawa prefecture will decide whether to hold the final based on the number of participating teams, etc.
▽The remaining eight cities and prefectures will have the winning team decided.

In addition, as a general measure to prevent infection, all tournaments will be unspectated, but in some tournaments baseball members and guardians who cannot enter the bench will be able to watch at the stand.
