Football fans are gearing up for the upcoming season as clubs announce their latest uniform sales and related events for 2025. With exciting options for merchandise and newly introduced fan engagement projects, this season promises not just fresh apparel but also opportunities for supporters to connect with their teams.
Tochigi City has announced the immediate availability of the 2025 season pass, with sales occurring on the same day as the match against SC Sagamihara. This pass provides access to all home games—totalling nineteen matches along with the Levain Cup—at significant savings over regular ticket prices. According to Tochigi City's official site, "シーズンパスは定価でチケットを購入するよりも約35%もお得!" (The season pass is approximately 35% cheaper than purchasing tickets at regular prices!). Fans have the chance to purchase these passes on February 15 from 10:45 AM to 2:00 PM, just outside the main entrance of the stadium. Payments are accepted only on-site, and various seating options are available.
Meanwhile, Albirex Niigata is preparing for its major uniform release, set to begin on March 1, 2025. The offering includes the 1st and 2nd uniforms alongside the GK 2nd uniform, as the GK 1st uniform has already reached its reservation quota. Pricing for the new jerseys starts at 20,900 yen and goes up to 25,300 yen for those wanting personalized name and number options. The launch will take place at multiple locations, including the Albirex Shop and soccer retailers like KAMO, with opening times varying by venue.
On the other hand, Urawa Reds has made notable announcements concerning its unique 3rd uniform. The design features a bold all-black color scheme, accented with deep gray. The club aims to utilize this uniform for various away matches throughout the 2025 season. The 3rd uniform will be sold via lottery system available starting February 11, 2025, through their online shop. Urawa Reds has indicated, "3rdユニフォームのデザインおよび販売概要をお知らせします。" (We will announce the design and sales details of the 3rd uniform!). This strategic approach ensures all fans have equal opportunities to secure this collector's item, thereby increasing community excitement and interest.
Not to be overlooked, Urawa Reds will also host Sustainablity Day during the match against Shonan on February 22, marking another initiative aimed at engaging fans with relevant issues. The club is launching "サステナビリティパーク" (Sustainability Park) which will serve as a venue for workshops and exhibitions pertaining to sustainability, creating awareness among attendees. This initiative connects football to wider community causes, inviting participation from fans during all home games.
With these announcements at the forefront, clubs are setting the stage for what promises to be a memorable and active season, not just through gameplay but also by fostering community ties and supporter engagement.
Fans are encouraged to mark their calendars for these important dates and to participate actively, ensuring they don't miss out on the opportunity to don their team's colors as well as join the efforts promoting sustainability and community involvement.
