Celebration / Queen recapture! Saitama Astraia who sang and danced, laughed and cried "The feast" of the last gratitude system of the 2017 regime.

Every year Saitama Astraia holds a thank you party as a place to thank stakeholders and fans during the Christmas period. Many fans crowded the venue this year by being able to enjoy players' gifts, gifts for lotteries, and chat with players.

At the same time it is the last opportunity for the team system of that year to gather, and the appearance of uniforms of athletes and leaders who will leave will be forecast on this date.

Director Nakajima Rishisa (# 50) who led the team to four crown this year retired and Mr. Masayuki Kayano (# 21) who was active as a valuable super sub in this season's hit will be leaving Astraia respectively It was. Strangely these two people both worked as a social worker and also a hard worker who fulfilled entering women's professional baseball at the age of 26.

Astraea of ​​this season finished second in the Victoria series (league game), dismissed Hyogo Dione of the same place in the queen determination (postseason) that advanced, and won the second time in four years. In addition, the women's professional baseball cup war · 2 Tiara Cup competitions (held in Kumamoto, Gifu), the tournament warfare competing with the Proama, also controlled the women's baseball Japan cup, achieving 4 crown.

Thank you party started with a toasting uttered by Rina Taniyama (# 17), Shiho Imai (# 22), Kaeda Iwami (# 10) who was in charge of producing this year.

In the talk show looking back at the game of the season this time, an episode in the queen determination took place in the rain, and Yuki Kawabata (# 23) said, "I did not know where I could protect them (with puddles) Speaking of the scenes, Yukari Isozaki (# 11), who started in the first game, said, "I never thought that I would play games," he said.

The players' performances were gang rogue disguise, broken up as a topical comedian / Nyanko star, playfully showed off the dance of Momokuro. Together with Tsuzuuchi Tadanobu New Supervision (# 51) appeared disguised as a couple, and boiled the fans in the opposite form to the usual silent image.

Oh the one who appeared in the costumes of Ganglo gals


I did show off my throat dance

Other than the last year, as well as last year's live performances by Yu Kato (# 9) who has a singer debut experience, players divided into two teams on the stage challenge five competitions, table opposition quiz tournament to win Was done.

At the end of the party entitled Graduation Ceremony, surprise footage for two people leaving the house was screened and opportunities for the last greeting for the fans were set up.

Kayano looked back on the active life of the 4 years and said, "I was happy that I could play baseball last night under the director Nakajima I was longing for since I was a high school student and I won the victory." Although the future course is not yet decided, we hold a teaching license for elementary and junior high school health and physical education, and we are considering taking the examination for teacher recruitment examination. He seems to be interested in teachers of special support classes.

Director Nakajima played the queen retirement since he experienced the victory in 2013 as the first year of Astraea's creation. In the first half of the season where the defeat continued, I spent days suffering that it might be necessary to change the way, but I overcame it and continued to emphasize "ideal baseball" to make it ideal, grabbing the top.

In the greeting "I do not have the ability to cheer" I believe that even if I have the ability I can not show it to the fullest. Conversely, if I can be cheered the power of the athletes doubles We will also triple as much as we can, "he emphasized the magnitude of support for the team and expressed his appreciation to the team and called for further support for Astraea from the coming season and concluded the party.

↓ Below, one after the party is over answered.

Even after the end of the season, I went to help with practice, so I did not feel it much, but the feeling that I finally retire has come to pass. But when you saw everyone practicing hard, there was loneliness that some distance was coming out with the players who will continue. At the same time it is impossible for me to do that anymore (laugh).

Is it still a match at the Jingu Stadium this year? Because 7000 people got a game while the customers came in. I could not win at the first half of the season this season and I cried in front of the customer when selling tickets in advance. But the joy at the time of victory was big, I let the sad happy tears.

It seems to be Astraea to everyone, I want the excitement and aim for the victory without changing.

Director Nakajima also said, but I think that the power of cheering for all the fans who support us at all times is important, so please continue to ask Astraia!

I decided not to cry and I came today, but that was done for me.

I did not feel that at all to this day, but I feel gradually from the vicinity of the start of the video of the graduation ceremony of Kayano players. Perhaps he ran away from thinking about leaving Asturia in me. I am very lonely now that it came in at a stretch today.

All the players are going to win, as the players gather and stretch at the time of the ups or encourage them to work hard with practice! It looks like a face with a circle formed with a feeling that ... I can imagine the appearance of such days. I will never forget that expression from time to time.

I have not decided anything yet. First of all I would like to relax for a while. But Astraea players also say they want me to come to practice and I am also worried, so when I have time I want to put out my face and put on threats!

I think that the next season will be fighting against the different pressure as a position to be pursued.

I would like you to keep in mind why I won this year and what kind of team I was at that time.

Team can not be built up with the power of one person. I think that everyone thinks that they can become one by really thinking the same way, so do not forget it and do your best.

I came up with "Nakajima Baseball" this year and I was able to leave results, so I would like to head on to a new challenge while leaving it in mind.

Teamwork, everyone baseball is a matter of course, and we will aim at the world ahead. It is heavily responsible for successive winning next year, but I hope to inherit the thoughts of Nakajima's director.

I think that athletes have more power than this year, so I'm looking forward to how much we can draw them out.

Especially, I think that next year will be an explosion for athletes who had few turns this season. I hope three people, Shiroya Chihiro (# 1 → # 19), Yamazaki Mai player (# 16), Matsumura Akihisa (# 7), will work well this time.

Among the good and bad conditions, we need the power of everyone to fight the season. I would like to aim to add player ability to complement it when the hole has opened.
