The Saitama Nearly-Men

Megumi and I went to Nagano for the Fall 2004 ALT Soccer Tournament. The Saitama Jets were magnificent. We had a great weekend, playing really well, and all having a lot of fun. We fought our way to the final, but were unlucky to lose on penalty-kicks. We will, however, be participating in the Saitama Stadium event in January, where the best teams from the east and west of Japan face off!

Megumi had a great time. She was the only supporter on the first day, so all the lads took care of her. It was good for both of us to get some fresh mountain air, and have lots of company for the weekend.
