As part of the club's social contributions based on the philosophy of "creating a prosperous community and society for the next generation," Urawa Reds joined the Saitama Prefecture Crime Victim Support Promotion Council in October 2021 and has been promoting activities to support crime victims in cooperation with the Saitama Prefectural Police.

In January of this year, we signed an Agreement on Crime Prevention Town Development with Saitama Prefecture and the Saitama Prefectural Police, and have been working together to realize a safe and secure life for the residents of the prefecture.

Through these collaborations, Urawa Reds and Saitama Prefectural Police have been working on various initiatives to date. We are pleased to announce that they will be holding an event at the 2025 Meiji Yasuda J1 League Round 14 match Tokyo Verdy on Saturday, May 3rd (national holiday) [MATCH PARTNER Medical Care Services], where they will provide a place for children to learn about careers and make police activities more familiar to them.

On this day, "GoGoReds! Day," many children come to the stadium.
Why not take this opportunity to experience working for the Saitama Prefectural Police, who protect our towns and lives every day and also support us in creating safe stadiums?
(With the cooperation of Saitama Prefectural Police Headquarters and Urawa First Police Dog Training Center)
