**Comment from Coach Akira Saido:**

We have renewed a one-year contract with Masaki Yoshida for the 2026-2027 season.

In his first year with the team in the 2024-2025 season, Player Yoshida made the most appearances on the team and supported the team as a spiritual pillar.

In the subsequent 2025-2026 season, he played a significant role, primarily in doubles, including winning the Best Pair Award with Hiromu Kobayashi.

He is an indispensable player not only in terms of his play but also in his ability to unite the team and his strong presence, making him a very reassuring presence for the team.

As the coach, I will fully support Player Yoshida in achieving his career-high performance in the 2026-2027 season.

We kindly ask for your continued warm support for Player Yoshida.
