Head coach/player comments

Head Coach Fumiya Muraoka

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement for the activities of the youth team. Thank you very much to everyone who made an effort to hold the competition.
It’s the 4th season since the u18 team stood up. We have been building a team based on the concept of fast offense from intense pressure defense. I would like to embody the Kawasaki Brave Thunders basketball style and show many people how hard they work.

Lee Ziho

We will work together as a team toward this goal and do our best to remain in the “B.LEAGUE U18 ELITE8 LEAGUE” in the end. Also, personally, I want to contribute to the team with rebounds and 3-pointers so that I don’t have any regrets.
