On the 2nd, Lotte announced that they will be holding a kickoff event for "Chiba-bu," a new community for young people to connect through hobbies and other things, at the game against Nippon-Ham on September 27th.

"Chiba-bu" is a community-based community similar to a club activity, where young people can connect with each other through hobbies and interests such as sports and food, and naturally form deep friendships, as part of the "Youth Friendship Support Project" implemented by Chiba Prefecture. The first Chiba-bu event will be held at Zozo Marine Stadium.

On the day of the event, there will be a pre-game practice session and viewing of baseball game on the stand deck (two drinks and a lunch box included), and the participation fee is 3,000 yen per person.

"I'm really excited to be working with Chiba Lotte Marines for the Chiba Club kickoff event, which will allow young people to meet and connect with each other in new ways! I've been a fan of the team since I was a child, so I'm very happy. I believe that meeting and connecting with people will be an invaluable asset. I hope that this event will help young people in the prefecture find new friends and wonderful connections. Please feel free to participate."
