■ Background of the Sponsorship Agreement with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars

Shonan Seminar has long supported many students in their 'challenge' to pass their desired schools, with a focus on the 'quality' of success. As a company also originating from Yokohama, we resonate with the Yokohama DeNA BayStars, who constantly embody the 'spirit of challenge' through baseball and provide courage to many people, and we have been walking together as an official sponsor for some time.
