Feedback from Local Contacts :
The organizers and participants were grateful for the participation from Japan despite social unrest such as terrorism. On the first day, Japanese participants gave lessons on batting methods and strategies with gestures. There were also hopes for more full-scale technical lessons and participation in Japanese exchange competitions. It seems to spread more to other European countries.
