The site I have for them also mentions art but also agriculture that the players help with. I'm not sure if the site has been updated of late though, https://www.echigo-tsumari.jp/ https://www.echigo-tsumari.jp/support/fc-echigo-tsumari/ FC Echigo-Tsumari This agricultural team consists of female soccer players who have moved to Matsudai to work in rice paddies, taking on farming responsibilities. Originating from the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale, this project proposes a lifestyle of living in a rural area while playing professional soccer. It's a pioneering project, unparalleled in Japan, that aims to maintain rice paddies facing a shortage of workers due to depopulation and an aging population through the "Matsudai Rice Paddy Bank." The team aspires to join the Nadeshiko League (Japan Women's Soccer League) in the near future.

Momoko Tanikawa was subbed in at 61st minute for Bayern against Frankfurt of Remina Chiba who played since 74th minute.
So far, here are the We League players who will retire at the end of the season : Albirex Niigata : Yuri Kawamura Tokyo Beleza: Azusa Iwashimizu Cerezo Osaka : Tomoko Tanaka Rina Yamashita Fu Nakanishi Jef Chiba : Maho Fujishiro Mynavi Sendai : Ami Kunitake Michi Goto Yuki Sakai
Too early, they are regular or semi-regular players this season. Yes, Cerezo has many younger hopeful players, but they should play more.
My extra game (2): U17 Asian Cup Japan vs South Korea 1 exact score (100pts, half hit 20pts) (if you entry tie score in regular time, you can do the extra time score, 100pts regardless of whether your regular time score is correct or not.) 2 Japan's first scorer (100pts, none, 100pts) 3 Japan's scorers (5, 20 pts, hit 4, +50pts, perfect 5, +100pts, nobody, 100pts) 4 at least two goals scorer (1, 100 pts, nobody 30 pts) 5 at least three goals scorer (1, 200 pts, nobody 10 pts) 6 exact time of Japan's first goal (200pts, nothing, 200pts)
What are they doing to players at Cerezo? /s I say it every year, but when good players this young retire it shows that the love of the game only goes so far. I could be wrong, but if they were making more money they probably would not retire. I just discovered by reading Nakanishi's retirment message that she was working while playing in her first two seasons at Cerezo. I wonder how many other players work and play. Ah Kunitake, former Stella player. I still wish she had stayed at Stella. She broke her collarbone in July last year and has not played a game since then as far as I know. She is still quite young, but she had a pretty good career. She was a really solid defender.
It seems to me that these two were playing like... forever! I was somehow aware that they were still active, but it anyway sounds incredible to me!

Nadeshiko League 1 F.T.....Viama 3-0 Ehime Can't fault the effort but more often than not Ehime FC Ladies are architects of their own downfall. (Ehime #8 Risa Fukasawa is 40 years old today ..She holds the record for the number of league appearances and still looks good for another 5 years imo....Happy Birthday Fukasawa san) Ps...I wish I was clever enough to understand the meaning of her continual on field hand signals

So safe that this is the week when Sfida don't score at all! Also, I predicted Omiya's Hanon Nishio to score a brace but not to score a single goal, that she did.
