■ Comment from Yusuke Tamai, Representative Director and Chairman of SCO Group Inc.
"Since the occurrence of the Reiwa 6 Noto Peninsula Earthquake, what we have consistently thought about is 'what can we do for the children who will bear the future?' The earthquake took away their ordinary daily lives and the time they could be passionate about. This time, we invited Dortmund coaches to create an opportunity for them to experience world-class soccer because we wanted them to feel firsthand that 'the world is wide, and dreams can come true.' We hope that on the pitch, they will forget the pain of the earthquake, chase the ball with all their might, and regain their smiles. We wish this tournament will be a small but certain beacon of hope for Noto's recovery. As a company that supports society from the dental industry, we will continue to stand by the people of Noto."
