Plus W Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Wakako Sakurai; hereinafter “Plus W”) is sponsoring the elementary school futsal tournament “EXILE CUP 2026” as a Supporting Company.

EXILE CUP × Plus W

Held under the theme “Dreams For Children,” EXILE CUP is a futsal tournament for 4th- to 6th-grade elementary school students, hosted in regions across Japan. Since its launch in 2010, the tournament reaches its 14th edition this year. Regional qualifying rounds are held in nine areas nationwide, and the winning team from each region advances to the national finals to compete for the championship. The initiative aims to create opportunities for children to take on challenges with full effort while enjoying the experience with a smile.

Deeply resonating with the philosophy of the tournament, Plus W is supporting the recruitment of corporate sponsors and is also participating as a Supporting Company. From the perspectives of regional revitalization and social contribution, we are advancing this initiative in collaboration with LDH JAPAN, Inc. Going forward, we will continue to support children’s challenges and contribute to creating opportunities that nurture their dreams.
