As part of the support for the reconstruction efforts following the Noto Peninsula earthquake, the general incorporated association Pickup Playground carried out the “HOKURIKU PLAYGROUND Renovation Project,” a project to renovate the basketball court at Uchinada-cho General Park in Ishikawa Prefecture with its own funds, and held a donation ceremony for the completed court. In addition to the people involved, Aho Himawari and Aho Sakura (both from DENSO Iris) from Nanao City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and Aho Raita (Akita Northern Happinets) also participated in the donation ceremony. A talk session, ribbon cutting, first shot, and other ceremonies were held on the newly opened basketball court. Aho Sakura commented, “I’m glad that we now have an environment where we can play basketball whenever we want.” Aho Himawari also said, “I want people to enjoy playing here.” And Raita Aho expressed his hope that future star players will be born from this court, saying, “I hope that local children will practice a lot and that future B Leaguers and W Leaguers will be born here.” Furthermore, Takehiko Inoue, the author of the manga “SLAM DUNK,” who supports the Pickup Playground Association, sent a message saying, “I am very happy that the basketball court in Uchinada Town has been beautifully completed through the ‘HOKURIKU PLAYGROUND Renovation Project. Let’s make the scenery of Japanese basketball even more rich with the power of each and every player who gathers on this court.”
