Coca-Cola Red Sparks Hockey Team's 2021 season will start, kicked off by the first match of the Prince Takamado Trophy 2020 Hockey Japan League Regular Stage held on Saturday, September 4.
The team achieved complete victory in all the top three national competitions* held last year, the first achievement ever since its foundation. National team members also rapped up their activities and re-joined the team in mid-August, and they are working hard as one team toward the opening of the league.

(National Sports Festival was postponed due to Covid-19.)
■Winner of the 42nd All Japan Corporate Women's Hockey Championship Tournament (for 2 consecutive years, five-time winner)
■Winner of the Takamado Trophy 2020 Hockey Japan League (4th time in 6 years)
■Winner of the 81st All Japan Women's Hockey Championship Tournament (2nd time in 8 years)

■With 6 new players joining the team, a total of 24 members will fight for the season.

Six new players joined the team this year. Each member is hard at work before practice, then focuses on hockey once practice begins. As they get settled in to life in Hiroshima, look forward to great things from these fresh new fighters.

■The highest record to date! Watch out for the 8 national team members as well!

Eight players, including fill-in reserves, took on the world this summer. After spending intense, hot days, the players are preparing hard for kickoff, hoping to show the audience how much they've grown from the experience. They are looking forward to seeing you out on the pitch.

■Further to last year, each player will also aim for personal achievements!

In 2020, individual achievements were also prominent, including Best Player of the Year Award and the Highest Score Award. The following is a comment from Kanefuji, who won the Annual Award of Excellence last year and continues as captain this year.
