Mishima Minami got his first Koshien ticket in recognition of his activities to popularize baseball for preschoolers. The final episode of the series “Senbatsu High School Baseball First Participation Talking about Mishima Minami” was by Ayako Hosoi (62), who was the director at the time at Mishima City Aoki Nursery School, where the school first held a baseball exchange event in the winter of 2014. I will deliver the story.

Mr. Hosoi was pleased to raise his hand to the good news of Mishima Minami. “I did it! I’m very happy. The nursery school friends were happy. I’m looking forward to a youthful and lively play at Koshien,” he said.
The baseball exchange event began around November 2014 when a proposal was made by director Keisuke Inagi (41) of Mishima Minami. “At that time, Mr. Inagi’s two children were attending, and he was told when he was picked up.” After that, a brief meeting was held for each pick-up, and the first exchange meeting was held in December the following day.
On the day of the exchange meeting, all the members performed “Yokaitaiso”, which was popular at that time, in the preparatory exercises, which caught the hearts of the children. After playing baseball and dodgeball, the members said, “The nursery school is a female family, so all the staff were grateful” for weeding the back of the garden, cleaning the gutters, and digging up the sandbox. ..
After that, it is said that “baseball pretend” was played among the children. Mr. Hosoi later moved to another nursery school, but at the monthly directors’ meeting, he revealed that “the directors who had an exchange meeting with Nanko had a good reputation.” “There are differences in baseball abilities at each school, but I felt that it would be good if I worked hard,” he said with a smile, saying that the series of activities was evaluated.[Moehiko Kawai](End)
