Yokohama City has formulated the 3rd Yokohama City Sports Promotion Plan

Yokohama City is promoting efforts to enable everyone to make sports a part of their lives, regardless of age, gender, disability, or nationality, from the perspective of “playing sports,” “watching sports,” and “supporting sports.”


Goal 1: Promoting health through sports
Goal 2: Achieving a multicultural society through sports
Goal 3: Fostering vitality through sports

Why not exercise and enjoy some relaxation?

  2. “Watching sports”
    “Yokohama Sports Partners” allows you to check out information about 13 professional sports teams in Yokohama.
    This includes the Yokohama DeNA Bay Stars (baseball), Yokohama F・Marinos (soccer), and Yokohama GRITS (ice hockey), among others.
    Multiple languages can be chosen from: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Hangul, Spanish, Portuguese, Vietnamese, and Thai.
    However, if you click a team you like, you will be directed to their official website, which is exclusively in Japanese. There, you can find a lot of information such as game schedules and ticket purchasing options. If you encounter any challenges navigating the Japanese sites, reach out to the International Lounges or YOKOHAMA Foreign Residents Information Center. (Please note: we cannot assist with ticket purchases.)
