Rugby World Cup Japan 2019 will start on September 20 in Japan. 20 teams all over the world are coming to Japan for training for the World Cup. Local governments of the cities where their training camps are located are designing international cultural events with the foreign players. These local governments would also like to keep good relationships with other countries and make an impression with their attraction of local foods and sightseeing places.
On September 14, the Namibian National Team arrived at Wakayama and a welcome party was held by the local people. I think that these events are really good for foreign players and local people because it becomes a memorable event with each other, which is a chance of a lifetime. The coach in the Namibian National Team announced that they are looking forward to experiencing the World Cup and cultural exchange with the people.
