KAWASAKI — As if it showed pride, dignity and a bit of anxiety, Team Japan revealed its Hinomaru-colored red-and-white jersey — and its 45-man strong roster — for the 3rd IFAF World Championship on Saturday morning at Kawasaki Stadium's clubhouse.
"We've been (training) since March 3, seeing so many different types of players. We're now ready to play in the tournament," Japan coach Toshiaki Abe said.
Japan is aiming to win its third straight title at the world championship, which is often referred to as "the American football World Cup."
