Sports in Kawasaki are very popular. Many residents participate in the
Run Festa and Canoe Competition held along the Tama River. In addition
to the many existing sporting events, top athletes and teams are working
with local residents to develop the city as Kawasaki Hometown Sports Promotion
Partners.
Kawasaki is the place for sports fans to enjoy national-level sports games
locally, including soccer J League games at the Todoroki Athletics Stadium;
women's volleyball V League, men's basketball Super League, and women's
basketball W League games at the Todoroki Arena; and the American football
X League games at the Kawasaki Stadium.
In addition, the National High School Bowling Championship is held annually
in Kawasaki. What is more, it has been decided that Kawasaki will play
host to the 3rd American Football World Cup this year.
