A celebration of all things Japanese with Epson and Matsumoto Yamaga
Officials from Geylang International, Epson and Matsumoto Yamaga FC met ahead of the Eagles’ match between Albirex Niigata on Wednesday to celebrate their long-standing relationships.
Geylang International has a memorandum of understanding with J-League’s Matsumoto Yamaga that was signed in 2016, while Epson’s relationship with the club also dates back to the same year when it became the club’s platinum sponsor.
In the last seven years, Epson has enjoyed premium hospitality access to the club’s home matches and has also supported the local football community and youths with the staging of the Epson Youth Cup.
Amongst the key initiatives of the partnership with Matsumoto Yamaga is the exchange programmes for players and coaches. Head Coach Noor Ali, who started his coaching journey with the Eagles in June 2012, had a one-year attachment with the Japanese side in 2018, where he guided their B team to the Japan FA’s Under-18 Football League Nagano prefecture title.
Both Geylang International and Matsumoto Yamaga are sponsored by Epson- a global technology leader from Japan.
