An official match for the men's volleyball V.LEAGUE team, Chiba ZELVA, was held at Chiba Togane Campus on December 28th and 29th, 2024. On June 21st, 2024, we signed a partnership with Chiba ZELVA to contribute to the Togane area through volleyball. Normally, the home game venue is YohaS Arena (Chiba City, Chuo Ward), but this time, the official match was held at our university as a special venue.
The Sports and Culture Center at Chiba Togane Campus was transformed into a professional match venue, with the V.LEAGUE logo and purple banners (the team color) installed, and seating in the first floor arena and second floor stands, creating an atmosphere different from that of a regular classroom. Approximately 800 people, including Chiba ZELVA fans, local residents, and students from our university, visited the venue over the two days. Visitors enjoyed the powerful professional volleyball matches, with the sounds of the players' shouts and the ball ringing out throughout the venue.
Based on this partnership, we will continue to collaborate with Chiba ZELVA through volleyball.
