【COSPA Wellness】Signs Sponsorship Agreement with Professional Tennis Player Masamichi Imamura! Full Support for the 'COSPA' Alumnus Athlete from April 2026

COSPA Wellness Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Osaka; Representative Director: Yasuaki Otomo), which operates 62 facilities primarily in the Kansai region under the "COSPA" brand, including fitness clubs, tennis clubs, and kids' swimming schools, as well as 24-hour fitness gyms "FITBASE24" and "QUPPA" and outsourced management of public sports facilities, has signed a sponsorship agreement with professional tennis player Masamichi Imamura, effective April 1, 2026.

Mr. Imamura is an athlete deeply connected to our company, having honed his skills during his junior years at our tennis schools, "COSPA Mikunigaoka" and "COSPA Kawachi Yao Minami School." Although he is currently based outside Kansai, we decided to conclude this sponsorship agreement based on our desire to "support local talent that has soared from our community and grow together."

Under this agreement, Mr. Imamura is scheduled to compete in domestic and international tours wearing apparel featuring our company's brand logo. We will wholeheartedly support the young man who once sweated it out in our school as he challenges the world as a professional.
