Cerezo Osaka president Hiroaki Morishima attended a local event, Shopping Arcade Dribble Championship, in which people dribble the ball at Awaji Honmachi Shotengai, a shopping arcade located near the Awaji Station of Hankyu Railway.
Morishima, as a club president as well as former professional who scored in the World Cup, attended and showed how to do it. Since he was appointed as a club president last year, he has been actively trying to connect with people in home town to bolster the fan base and this is considered as a part of his endeavor.
