【April Dream】Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara's 'Momochan Land' Envisions a Full Stadium Future.

Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara endorses April Dream, which aims to make April 1st a day to share dreams. This press release is the dream of Nojima Stella Kanagawa Sagamihara.

Currently, the average attendance for our home games is 894 people. The reality is that there are many empty seats compared to the stadium's capacity. However, we do not give up. Our dream is to fill this stadium with over 10,000 smiling faces. As a first step, on May 2, 2026, we will hold "Momochan Land 2026," which will turn the stadium into a giant theme park.

## Why now fill the stadium?
Sports have the power to move people's hearts and unite a community. However, what we aim for is not merely to "record attendance figures." We want to create a "place where emotional connections are born" at Sagamihara Gion Stadium, where 10,000 people gathered in the stadium can share joy and sorrow over the same moment and play, and exchange smiles with strangers next to them.

## Facing reality, yet speaking of the dream of '10,000 people'
Currently, the average number of people who visit Sagamihara Gion Stadium is 894. The goal of a "10,000-person full stadium" may seem out of our league and a reckless challenge for us right now.

However, every time we see empty seats in the stands on the day of our matches, we deeply feel, "This stadium must have the power to make more people happy. It is our lack of effort that prevents us from showing it." We believe that there is certainly a "full house view" that only women's soccer can create, rather than chasing after other sports.

## From 'Watching' to 'Experience': The Challenge of Momochan Land
"Momochan Land 2026," which we are launching this time, is not merely a promotion for a match. It is a transformation into a "stadium theme park" where anyone, whether interested in soccer or never having visited a stadium before, can be the star.

- **The heat source to change "894 people" to "10,000 people"**: We will create a space that integrates play, learning, and food, evolving from a place to "go watch soccer" to a place to "go get excited all day long."
- **Rebuilding hometown pride (civic pride)**: The stadium will be full. We believe that this sight itself will become the vitality of the hometown and an aspiration for children.

## From 894 to 10,000 people. Passing on the dream's baton
Speaking of 10,000 people now, with an average of 894, may be an overly significant challenge. However, just as there were predecessors who created 10,000 people's enthusiasm in this stadium, we too must be able to do it. "Momochan Land" is the first step towards that dream.

We will go beyond the realm of women's soccer, so that Sagamihara Gion Stadium can be throughout the year, every
