Out of the blue last summer, our school received a certificate of support from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. Gymnastics, basketball, bowling and karate were singled out!
なんの前触れもなく突然、今年の夏、我が校が東京都より「東京アスリート育成推進校」として指定されました。体操、バスケットボール、ボーリング、空手が選ばれました!
Seiritsu has many good sport's programs, especially soccer and baseball. But the surprise for me of course was the recognition of support for our Karate club. The Seiritsu Karate Club is the oldest high school karate club in Tokyo, having started in 1963.

成立学園には、優秀な運動部が多くありますが、特にサッカーと野球が有名です。それなのに我らが空手部が選出されたのには正直驚きました。成立学園空手道部は1963年の創立で、都内では一番古い高校の空手部です。
Only a few other schools were also chosen, so I am humbled and honored that we received this recognition. Of course I hope more students join our Seiritsu Karate Club, but I would simply like to hear about more students joining all karate clubs at every school which has one!
他に選ばれたのがたった数校だったと知って、我が部が認定されたことを謙虚に受け止めつつも、大変光栄に思います。もちろん、我が校の空手部にもっと新入部員が入ったらいいなと思いますが、他校の空手部にももっと部員が増えるといいなと純粋に思います。
