Atlas Tachikawa Sports Day Activities!
Welcome back to the Atlas Tachikawa blog!
Does anyone know what special day October 12th is? For most adults, it is simply a day off of work, but for the knowledgeable, it is a day to celebrate sports!
Fun Fact: the first Sports Day was on October 10th 1966. This year is the 60th anniversary! It was created to commemorate the 1964 Olympics held in Japan.
Every year, students have Sports Festivals and all around Japan, initiatives are launched to emphasize the importance of healthy living.
At Atlas Tachikawa, we held a mini Sports Festival with the following events:
- 50-meter dash
- Tennis bocce ball
- Marble relay
- Tennis basketball
The students had a blast and in particular, the marble relay was a big hit!


Please enjoy the long weekend and we will see everyone after the long weekend!
Stay healthy and stay moving!
