Minoru Iwata was active as a professional baseball player. ARKRAY, Inc. started the “IWATA PROJECT 21″ activity in 2011 to help children with diabetes have dreams and hopes through support. Mr. Iwata retired from active duty in 2021, but his desire to convey the message to children with type 1 diabetes that “if you work hard, dreams can come true” remains the same, and he continues to be active. ■What is a sports festival? Sports events aimed at maintaining and improving health are not just about getting your body moving, but it is important to take advantage of the opportunity to participate and change the behavior of participants, which will lead to future exercise habits. That’s what I think. Therefore, we focused on the concept of physical literacy. This is a concept that has been attracting worldwide attention in recent years from the perspective of establishing exercise habits, and in Japan, the Basic Sports Plan (Third Period) states, “Continuing exercise and sports throughout your life, keeping your mind and body healthy and happy.” It is introduced as “qualities and abilities that enable one to lead a daily life”. Physical literacy is divided into four areas (physical, psychological, social, and cognitive), and it is expected that events and exercise classes that consider all areas will expand in the future. We understand that you may be busy, but we would appreciate your taking the time to interview us. *Event announcement flyer
