TOC English & Football Academy in Tokyo, Japan
Just one more day for my year 6 TOC players to attend and they will graduate.
Can't quite believe TOC will be in it's 5th year from April.
It's always sad to see the players off but some will move onto very good clubs.
Notably Yuki and Hiroki who will enter the youth system at FC Tokyo.
Yuki was also the captain of the National Canon boys team as him and Rikuto were selected into the 14 man squad.
Yuta, from our first year of TOC players, will be playing for one of the best youth team in Japan, Kashiwa Reysol.
Sai, a year 3 student will also be playing for Kashiwa Reysol in the U10 squad.
Another special player in my opinion.
Few have been selected in the Tokyo Verdy and the FC Tokyo advance program.
So quite a lot has happened at TOC in the first 4 years alone, but I'm sure there will be more to come.
Speaking of it, I will be opening a 2nd TOC Academy in Tokyo, at a place called Shinkiba.

The link is in Japanese, but it's for players around the age of 6-15.
One week of coaching in Japanese and one week of English.
Hopefully there will be more exciting things at TOC to happen in the future and seeing more exciting players!!
