Utilization of "vaccine / test package" Behavior verification of supporters

In the final of the J League Cup, we will utilize the "vaccine / test package" that proves that we have been vaccinated and that the test was negative, and we will add 10,000 people, which is the largest ever, to the upper limit of the number of spectators. The match was held.



The J-League has set a guideline that the maximum number of spectators will be 10,000 as a transitional measure for about one month after the cancellation of the match in the area where the state of emergency was declared, while the league held this month. We have used the "vaccine / test package" in 6 games such as battles to verify the behavior of supporters by including spectators who exceed the upper limit.



In the final of the J League Cup held at Saitama Stadium on the 30th, in addition to the upper limit of 10,000 people, those who have passed more than 2 weeks since the second vaccination and received a PCR test within 3 days were negative. Tickets for 10,000 people, the largest ever, were additionally sold to people, and finally 17,933 people watched the game.



At the stadium, a dedicated booth was set up, and the supporters who visited the stadium presented their vaccination certificates and entered the stadium, and watched the game at the designated seats.



Also, during the match, the state of the stand is photographed with a camera to check the percentage of people who are removing the mask compared to ordinary seats, and whether or not there is aloud support with a machine that measures the volume. It means that it was confirmed whether the awareness of infection prevention was lowered by measuring.



A 30-year-old man from Osaka who visited the venue using the "vaccine / test package" said, "I can watch the game with peace of mind, and I think it's a good system, although there are many troublesome parts."
