The beach sport "Frescoball," originating in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1945, will hold the "JBG®F Chiba 2026 RYOGEISYA Frescoball Championship -EAST-" as a special official tournament. It is loved worldwide as a "cooperative" scoring sport where two people facing each other keep a rally going, but there are various ways to enjoy it. This tournament will be held in a three-part structure: a "Trinca Match" where a rally is continued by a team of three; a "Challenge Match" for players who have participated in less than 3 official matches or have no award experience; and a "Dream Match" where pairs are formed by lottery among the top 10 annual ranking players.
