It took place during the spring holidays, coming back from Tressen.

The next day was a weekday, so I go to elementary school as usual.

And after school, as usual, we head to practice for the football team to which we belong.

"Look, this is the signature of the U-15 football Japanese! That would be awesome!

After practice, show the autographed colored paper to your teammates.

The colored paper said that the future J-Ledger candidate's signature was a slack.

For me, a football game geek, it's a prized treasure.

"What? Whose signature is this, Coata?

"I don't even know people..."

"Coata said it was signed by a Japanese representative..."

But the reaction of the teammates was rather lonely. But maybe this reaction doesn't help either.

Because at the moment, the U-15 delegates in middle school are still close to anonymous.

Even regular football boys wouldn't be interested if they weren't in the A-representative team class.

"Uh, what about the coach? Of course you do, don't you?

"U-15 rep... Coata, you have a sinister taste"

The coach, who was the last line of request, is also quite unresponsive.

Damn. Coaches are soccer meeks, but they're hard to like.

But everyone's reaction is faint, and there may be no choice.

Because it wasn't until they graduated from high school and became J-Lieger that the U-15 delegates became famous.

I know the future, but I'm probably overexcited.

"More Coata than that. Our autographs are amazing!

"What? Whose signature is it, Captain?

Three of the captains in sixth grade take some kind of signature ball out of their bags.

Whose signature on earth is it?

Take it in your hand and let me see it.

"This is the signature of the former Japanese representative Ano. ⁉ How could the captains ⁉"

I was stunned. That sign was familiar to me.

A Japanese athlete who retired a long time ago. I was a great player, too.

The captains had the signature ball.

"In the holidays up to yesterday, we would have gone to Tressen in the elementary school province, too, wouldn't we? That's where I was coming from."

The sixth graders, the three captains, had been summoned to Tressen, a prefect.

Apparently this former athlete was here as a special mentor.

Apparently all elementary school students who participated in the prefecture Tressen had been signed. They were all overjoyed at the signature of the famous player.

"Damn... to the captains, it's a complete defeat... gut"

I collapse my knee and fall in.

I never expected such a great player to come to Tresen, such a northeastern rural province.

It was exactly the same date as National Tresen, so I didn't even look at the information.

If I'd known, I'd go to National Tresen... I'd have been worried.

"Coach, if there's a celebrity coming next, let me know too! I'll do my best so I can definitely participate!

"The truth is, National Tresen is more awesome... as always, Coata is. Well, if you try your best at the Summer and Fall Games, I'll consider it."

"Thank you, coach!

The coach gave me the word of promise.

I respond with a voice of temper.

But as the coach said, I'm not the one floating around.

Anyway, the fifth grade year has just begun.

Summer tournaments are coming up and there are big tournaments in the fall. There are also many summer holiday intensive accommodations and expedition games to other provinces.

For the soccer boys, the holidays and weekends are every day of the game pickling. There may also be district and provincial tresen.

(Speaking of which, this is the first time my predecessors have been called to the province of Tressen...)

Provincial Tresen is an institution that collects and educates children who are personally good in each province.

Just for the record, it's pretty hard to be called to the province of Tressen.

Four years before I joined the team in that evidence, none of the seniors called to the prefecture of Tressen were on the team.

In other words, Hirosaki Liberillo is sure that the team's overall strength is up from four years ago.

Top 8 in their first appearance at the national tournament. Then, the following year, he won the national championship.

The past two years have not been a bad time. Individual strengths were combined.

"Come on, Coata. Let's stay and practice until our parents pick us up!

"We've been studying in Tressen, Prefecture."

"I'm not gonna let juniors look big forever."

Sixth-grade seniors begin to practice staying.

This has been a habit since I entered the athlete's course. Morning practice from 6: 00 in the morning had also become a habit.

(I've really been blessed with my past seniors...)

Historical seniors have never looked disgusted at me for what I'm supposed to be a busy junior.

I always took the initiative and practiced voluntarily.

That's why the new fourth graders now also apprentice and practice voluntarily.

"Seniors, I'll show you Tressen's accomplishments too!

It was still no coincidence that Hirome Riveriro was getting stronger.

The team will be stronger in the future.

The enthusiasm of this practice became history and the color of the team.

(I always think, after all, this team is good...)

National Tresen was also exciting and fun.

But my team is still the best.

I definitely want to go as far as the national tournament this year with this team.

Thus the moon flows.

I was soccer pickled every day, regardless of spring or summer.

Being in fifth grade makes my body grow more and more.

I also learned moves that I had never been able to do before. I will further sublimate the moves I polished with Tressen personally.

The team was doing well again.

The increase in overall strength allowed us to win even in the summer games.

It was no longer the feeling of winning all competitions at the provincial level with no enemies.

This year, as a new attempt, he also participated in various competitions across the country.

The J-League junior team was in on it, too, so it was a struggle. But it was a pretty studious tournament.

So far, the main players on the team are the Captains 6th grade combined with me and Leopard your 5th grade. She is also a girl and is a fourth grade sunflower.

But the other fifth graders grew up as regular frames. The fourth graders and the rapid growth are also remarkable.

For this minute, the overall strength of the team after next year will go up even further.

And for the National Games in December, the District Games in October and the Provincial Games in November in the fall. The team also goes into the finish for these three.

Again this year it is the winners & consecutive winners of the national tournament that we are after. You can't lose along the way for that.

Spring and summer season, the team welcomed together. We lived a full football life.

Furthermore, the season was at the end of summer and late summer.

"Okay, good luck today!

"" "Thank you, Coach!

Team practice, as usual, and the end time at 7: 00 p.m. comes.

After this, I practice staying until my father picks me up on his bike.

"Hey, Coata. Come here for a moment, and so will Sawamura."

"What? Yes, coach"

Me and Leopard, you were called in by the coach after practice.

The coach looks pretty strange.

What the hell is going on?

Speaking of which, even a few months ago, I feel like there was an occasion like this.

"No, don't get hard, Coata. You guys know" Football Japan by Age "?

"By age? Yes, for once..."

I was a football geek in my previous life, of course I know.

In international football matches, restrictions may be placed on player eligibility.

For example, if you are 23 years of age or younger or 18 years of age or younger, select players and form teams to the extent that you meet their qualifications.

In other words, "Football Japan Representative by Age” is a soccer Japan representative by age, and is not an exaggeration when it comes to future international A candidates.

What exactly is a representative of that age?

Perhaps you, Hyoma, were chosen to represent you by age?

If he's the scoring king of the national tournament and Ace's, there's plenty of potential.

"As you can guess. Pleasure, you've been chosen as a Special Frame Member of the Age Representation."

"Oh, the boulder is you leopard! What?... Me too?

The coach's words were as expected.

But there was a large part that was off.

That was no way.

Oh, my God, I was also chosen as a special frame for age-specific representatives.

"Really... I am a member of the U-12 Japan Representative below the elementary school level..."

Suddenly I doubted my ears.

And I'm really surprised, my heart's starting to bug me.

Representative by age even in a special frame...... I'm really glad.

I might be more than happy to talk about this here alone, winning last year's national tournament.

You can fight with that circle of sunshine.

For football boys across the country, being chosen as a generation representative is just a dream.

"Is that it?"

In the midst of such an emotion. I realize something.

I'm going to search the memory of a football geek.

"But, Coach... there's no U-12 in Japan right now, is there?

If my memory is certain, there was no U-12 frame for the Japanese representatives of this era.

You should only be a little older at your age.

"Oh, not U-12"

"Coach, that means... could it be?

I've got a bad feeling about this exchange.

"The summons came from the U-15 Japan's special athlete frame."

"I knew it..."

Me and Leopard came to you with the same U-15 summons as last time.

If I'm serious, I'm very happy with U-15. I'm half happy.

But there's something about Tressen last time, so I can't be alarmed if anything happens.

Ask the coach to show you the details and schedule of the convocation.

Maybe I'm willing to miss something.

"Coach, what's this schedule..."

I'm on a representative's schedule, and I find a part of it.

"Coach, there's a schedule for this U-15 delegate and a schedule for the district provincial tournament...?

"Oh, yeah. If you respond to the summons, you will not be able to enter the district and prefectural competitions."

It was just booking.

There was just an overlap between the age-specific schedule of the dream and the most important schedule of Hirosaki Riveriro.

If you answer the summons... without me and Leopard, the team will have to take part in the district prefecture tournament.

"Oh no. What shall we do..."

I accidentally lose my words.

Because if it stays this way, it will be the absence of two people who make up most of the team's scoring sources.

In the worst case scenario, there was a great chance that the team would not be able to compete in the national competition.
