140. Fight for your dreams
The summer league is known as the National Conference of Wild Ball Players in the Higher Education Park;
It is the most dreamed and anticipated time of the year for all high school boys across the country!
According to incomplete statistics, in previous years, there were nearly 4,000 high school baseball teams preparing to participate in Summer Liga in various places, and they will show their skills in regional trials across the country!
4,000 teams represent 4,000 high schools......
In Japan, a small island country, how many adolescent boys can there be, and how many high schools can there be!?
This shows how grand the high school baseball national tournament is in Japan!
As usual, the atmosphere of Hagar was blowing all over the country's high school campuses in late May and early June!
The members of the baseball club of each school have put in many times more effort than usual, and they have devoted themselves to hard training. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
And the rest of the students in the school don't mean that they are not members of the baseball club, so they don't have anything to do with themselves.
That's a big mistake......
In fact, high schools all over the country, especially those students with a certain level of high school baseball schools, are also working very hard to prepare for this year's summer league!
Let's not talk about it far away, let's just say that this is the case with the Aoba Dodai High School where our male pig is located!
Seeing that the start of the summer league in July is getting closer and closer, many students in the school who are not members of the baseball club have also participated in the activities of the Aoba Daotai Summer Liga Support Association, which was specially formed by the school's student union.
Well, at this point, maybe you can guess a thing or two!
That's right, the cheering club actually means cheerleading!
Don't underestimate the cheerleaders of Japanese high schools, the members of the cheerleaders and the scale of their team will eventually present a work that can shake up the entire Koshien Stadium!
In this regard, in early June, on the TV screen, an inspirational music video created by the Asahi Shimbun Club, the organizer of the Summer Liga League, gave baseball fans across the country a pot of chicken soup full of hearts and drinks at various times of the day!
In this regard, our pig horn children's shoes Kasuga Yun has naturally also seen this MV!
To be honest, he likes this MV full of baseball inspirational atmosphere, and the songs and music in it are also very good, and the picture portrayal of the student players who have performed well in Koshien in previous years is also very moving, which makes Kasugamo feel full of excitement and anticipation when he sees it.
……………………
Leaving aside these external things, let's turn our attention back to the league schedule.
Since the team group draw ceremony has been held in the prefecture in mid-June, it is now clear who the opponents they will face in this summer league are now clear about who they will face in this summer league!
This year, there are as many as 500 high school teams in Kanagawa Prefecture that have applied to qualify for the Summer Liga competition!
Well, some people may wonder how it is possible for a county to have so many high schools, which is unrealistic......
However, if you understand the regional constitutional system of Japan, it will be clear that the level of 'prefecture' here does not represent the name of the prefecture or city city that we are familiar with, but is equivalent to a province!
There are so many counties, cities, districts, and towns in one province, and the number of high schools is naturally very large.
But only a competition like the Summer Liga can attract so many high school teams to participate in the selection!
If you switch to ball games such as soccer and basketball, it would be a huge amount to have 200 high schools in the prefecture participate!
This shows how high the status of baseball is in the hearts of the Japanese people......
In addition, due to the unprecedented scale of the Summer Liga League, the format of the tournament is a single-elimination schedule in the regional selection tournament before entering the Koshien finals.
In other words, if Aoba Dodai High School wants to make it from Kanagawa Prefecture to the Koshien finals, they will have to start from the first town, go through the prefecture and city, and then then the prefecture level, and finally win the national competition representing Kanagawa Prefecture in the Koshien Finals.
Although it is only a four-level schedule, and you don't have to face most of the rival high school teams in the prefecture at once, the situation on the way to the group where Aoba Dodai High School was drawn is not optimistic.
The first is the selection of the district, the opening game against the old rival of Aoba Southern Suburbs High School; Then we will meet Totsuki Shirasugi High School, which is also an old rival, and then we will meet the top 8 match in Yokohama City, and the opponent will definitely be Tsurumi High School, a veteran powerhouse in the city in the other half of the division.
Then the opponents to be faced in the top 4, coach Kawano Yu baseball club's senior generals, after analysis, felt that it would be the battle between the other two strong teams in the city, Naka Ward High School and Kanagawa Ward Chiba High School.
After that, Aoba Dodai High School has to defeat all these high schools in order to ascend to the throne of the strongest in the city, and go to the county level to compete with the strong teams from each city in the county.
After 8 more rounds of battles, Aoba Dodai High School will have a chance to reach the top of the strongest in the prefecture!
Later, then later, it was the Koshien National Race!
This is still too far away from the current Aoba Dodai High School, so now coach Kawano has set his sights and goals on the first small goal he set at the beginning - the battle for the strongest team in the city.
……………………
Early July.
Finally, this year's summer league was lit up by a burst of impatient shouts from high school boys from all over the country in the hot weather of midsummer.
Thursday, 4th, sunny weather.
Kasugamo got up early and began to prepare the bags for today's requisition.
A set of changed sportswear, the uniform of the baseball club has been put on, and then he has successively stuffed gloves, protective gear, commemorative baseballs, notebooks, pens, and bats into his duffel bag from the things he sorted out!
Soon the small duffel bag was stuffed with all kinds of prepared things.
At this time, my sister Yamei knocked on the door and walked in: "Ah Yun, come, this is for you!" ”
I saw my sister Yamei stretch out a small white jade hand at this time, and spread out her palm for Kasuga Cloud to see.
"This is ~~"
"Lucky rope, I spent a week making it very carefully!" Sister Mei Mei introduced: "The red rope here is the red rope of enlightenment that I asked for from the shrine, and I also added your favorite white and black ropes to weave together, so ...... This will bring you good luck! ”
"~~~" Kasugayun silently glanced at her sister Mei, and found that her delicate little face was not very energetic, and it looked like there were signs of staying up late.
So it's not difficult for Kasugamo to guess that her sister Mei Mei took a lot of rare free time to weave this lucky rope for herself outside of her intense academic time.
For a while, Haruto's heart was full of emotion, and he stepped forward and gently hugged his sister Bud Mei and thanked him: "Thank you, sister!" ”
"~~" After Bud Mei smiled sweetly and hugged her brother back, she pushed him away and personally brought the lucky rope to his left wrist: "This is your first Koshien journey, come on!" ~~ Definitely, you must play a good game, you know!? ”
"Oh! ~~" Kasugayun replied: "I will!" ”
At this time, her sister Meimei, who helped her brother bring the lucky rope, carefully sorted out the clothes and appearance on Kasuka's body like a girl who sent her relatives out of the house.
Kasugayun looked down at her sister's careful and serious appearance, and was a little stunned for a while!
Such a beautiful, beautiful and gentle and virtuous sister, it is really ...... to have her.
Suddenly, I don't know what's wrong, Kasugayun had a strange thought in his heart, but when he thought of this, Kasugayun didn't dare to think about it anymore, because he was afraid of ......
After a while, Kasugamo stood at the door with a duffel bag.
After her sister Mei picked up the fire sickle and gently struck her younger brother on the back a few times, she said with a blessing: "Haiyi~~ Then, Ah Yun, please go all the way!" ~~ I'll go over and cheer you on later in today's game! ”
"Yes! ~" After Kasugayun answered, he suddenly said something that surprised his sister Mei: "Sister, although I don't know how much I can do with my current ability, I will work hard to compete!" …… Daddy, Daddy used to be such a powerful person, as his stepson, I don't want to lose ugly in a place that Daddy is familiar with! So...... So, sister, you wait and see! ~This year, I will work hard to get the winning flag back from Koshien and show it to you! ”
Hearing this, my sister Mei suddenly came out with tears in her eyes.
With a faint whispering voice, her sister Mei smiled while crying: "Go, boy, for your dreams!" ~" (To be continued.) )
