Activity Report: Every year, about 80 teams (approx. 1,000 people) participate in tournament-style matches divided into four age-based divisions, aiming to win the "Ibaraki Tokyu Cup." It was clear many players had prepared for the tournament, and passionate cheering was seen everywhere. The costume parade, a staple of the final tournament, was very exciting, and the bento boxes provided as participation prizes were very well received by the players.
Staff Comment: Hiroko Ochiai, Tokyu Resorts & Stay Co., Ltd. - We were worried about the forecast of snow, but thanks to the passion of all the players, we were able to hold the tournament safely. Many participants have been competing for many years, and we received many warm words such as "it's our annual pleasure," "please continue this in the future," and "thank you for the delicious bento as always." We will continue to strive to make this a tournament that contributes to the community as a fun event where we can interact with many people through volleyball, a lifelong sport.

Staff Comment: Fumiyoshi Takeuchi, Tokyu Department Store Co., Ltd. - We held a family concert centered on the Asia University Wind Orchestra and alumni volunteers known as the "Virtu-Leaver Society," which was a great success last year as well.

As Tama Tokyu-kai, we will continue to work on various projects to be loved by the local community.

This Month's Pickup Tokyu-kai: [Kagoshima Tokyu-kai] Member count: 3 companies
Kagoshima Tokyu-kai is composed of three group companies in Kagoshima Prefecture. Every year, they conduct the "Traffic Orphan Scholarship & Compassionate Welfare Fund Campaign," which reached its 27th year in 2026. They also sponsor the Japan Women's Tennis Federation Kagoshima Branch by holding the "Kagoshima Tokyu-kai Cup" tennis tournament every December. Additionally, they continue to contribute to the community through activities such as local cleanup and greening.
Staff Comment: Kenichi Tsuru, Tokyu Community Corp. - Kagoshima Tokyu-kai is engaged in community activities in the land of Kagoshima, surrounded by Sakurajima, Kinko Bay, and magnificent nature. In the scenery that is our pride as residents, the daily changing expressions of Sakurajima, and the soft sunlight illuminating the city, I feel the charm, energy, and great potential of this land once again. I realize that the accumulation of continuous efforts such as the "Traffic Orphan Scholarship & Compassionate Welfare Fund Campaign" (27th year), the "Kagoshima Tokyu-kai Cup," and local cleanups leads to warm connections and trust with the community. Many predecessors who have been involved in Kagoshima Tokyu-kai's activities have cherished the feelings for the region, connections between people, and a sincere attitude for many years. We will take over these feelings firmly and strive to create new value together with the local people and connect it to the next generation.

Basic Information
The Origins of Tokyu-kai: Around 1963, employees of various Tokyu Group companies in the Sapporo and Kansai regions spontaneously formed groups to exchange information and deepen friendships. This is considered the beginning of Tokyu-kai. Later, as group businesses expanded, Tokyu-kai chapters were launched in each region. Around 1980, Tokyu-kai was formally organized, and the Tokyu-kai Federation was established as a national organization. "The horizontal connections and cohesion of the Tokyu Group are strong. It is a group capable of mutual aid, where even a single piece of information can be utilized from various angles. Tokyu-kai is an asset unique to the Tokyu Group that does not appear on the balance sheet." This was recorded as words of Noboru Gotoh, the Tokyu Group Chairman at the time, around 1980. For over half a century since its inception, Tokyu-kai has continued its activities without interruption while reorganizing its structure in line with changes in social conditions.

About Tokyu Group: The Tokyu Group, which began with the establishment of Meguro-Kamata Electric Railway Co., Ltd. in 1922, is a corporate group consisting of 214 companies and 7 legal entities centered on Tokyu Corporation (formerly Tokyo Express Railway Co., Ltd.) as of March 31, 2025. With "community development" based on the transportation business as the core of our business, we have been operating for many years in various fields closely related to people's daily lives, such as real estate, lifestyle services, and hotels/resorts. With the slogan "Toward a Beautiful Era," we uphold "the creation of a beautiful living environment" that responds to people's diverse values as our group philosophy. Based on the "independence" of each company, we promote "co-creation" to link with each other and generate synergy, aiming to establish the trusted and loved Tokyu brand. We are also actively engaged in community-rooted social contribution activities through the activities of schools and foundations, as well as Tokyu-kai activities deployed nationwide.
