Sota Naoki Sakamoto

Rugby and fitness coach, Kawasaki

🇯🇵 Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan
Kawasaki Youth Club
Since 2011
Japanese

For 15 years I've run the rugby program at Kawasaki Youth Club in Kawasaki. We trained 4 evenings a week, whatever the weather. Winning was never the point, though I won't pretend I didn't enjoy it. I play music while people worked.

More about Sota

If you played for me, you probably remember the morning the power went out and we had class in the yard.

What gifts mean to Sota: I'll put any gifts toward a small fund so no child misses a match because of money.
