[Event Recap] Shinji Okazaki NYC Tour 2026: Four Days Exploring the Power of Sports

Shinji Okazaki NYC Tour 2026 

April 12–15, 2026

Over four days in New York City, the tour showcased the power of sports.

From a youth soccer clinic and school visits to business engagements and the special talk session “A Night of Legends” with Hideki Matsui, the program was both diverse and highly engaging.

At the clinic, over 100 youth players experienced Shinji Okazaki’s skills and insights firsthand, gaining inspiration both on and off the field. The tour also brought together more than 100 attendees at “A Night of Legends,” as well as over 120 participants at the Columbia Business School session.

The tour also included:

• New York Red Bulls stadium visit

• NYCFC office visit

• New York Foxes community event

• MLB headquarters visit

• School visits

• Meetings with corporate and sports industry professionals

Through these experiences, we were able to further experience the social and business potential of sports.

Across both on- and off-field activities, we strongly felt the value of sports and its potential to bring people together.

Building on the connections and opportunities created through this tour, we look forward to expanding these efforts into ongoing projects and new initiatives.
