Table Tennis Butterfly Launches 2nd "My Own Milestone Commemoration Campaign"

Tamasu Co., Ltd., which operates the "Butterfly" brand, is launching its second "My Own Milestone Commemoration Campaign," following the first one held in January. This campaign aims to support individuals who are at a turning point in their lives, such as changes in lifestyle or a break from work/child-rearing, and have a desire to "try table tennis!" or "restart table tennis after a long time!" Applicants who submit details of their "own milestone" are eligible. From the applicants, 30 individuals will be selected by lottery to receive a recommended table tennis starter set, allowing them to start table tennis with peace of mind, even if they are unsure which equipment to choose. The starter set includes items such as the 'Mizutani Jun Major' racket and 'Rozena' rubber, recommended by Butterfly Gold Medal Advisor Jun Mizutani as entry-level equipment. Starter Set During the first campaign, we also received various "my own milestone" episodes. - My free time increased after retirement and a break from caring for my parents. I want to restart table tennis, which I played until university. - It was fun playing with my table tennis-experienced husband at a nearby table tennis class. I want to seriously start playing table tennis. - My child, who suffered from a rare disease, is now stable and joined the table tennis club in junior high. My child has already become better than me, but I want to restart table tennis, which I used to play, and become a practice partner. - My high school child is participating in the national tournament. I want to understand my child's feelings as they gradually become independent, and I hope table tennis can connect us even when they eventually leave home, so I want to start playing table tennis. As the new fiscal year begins and many reach new milestones, we look forward to receiving many applications. Please check the Butterfly website for details. About Tamasu Co., Ltd.
