In 2021, I was not able to interact directly with the athletes and the people of the village, but I was grateful that I was able to play an active part in the Tokyo Olympics thanks to the support. Also, on the 2nd, they visited Ogata Village, which hosted the pre-Games training camp, and participated in a debriefing session.
