[Dodgeball] Supporting the Japanese national team with our employee, Takumi Yoshimura

At the WDA Dodgeball World Cup 2022 Cairo, held in Egypt in 2022, Japan won a silver medal in the women's division and bronze medals in the men's and mixed divisions, despite it being their first time participating in the tournament. Takumi Yoshimura, an employee of our company, won a bronze medal in the mixed division.
The global standard is "multi-ball," in which six players throw five balls at each other. Unlike the "single-ball" style familiar in Japan, which uses one ball, this style is characterized by its speed and intense offense and defense, and is the mainstream around the world.
In multiball, the team that reduces the number of opposing team members in each 1-minute set (3 minutes each for the first and second halves, a total of 15 minutes) wins, making it an appealing sport that requires not only stamina but also brainpower.
KYODO KY-TEC will continue to support the Japanese national dodgeball team, including Takumi Yoshimura, who is affiliated with our company.
