Japanese Chess
Wednesday, January twenty fourth, two thousand and seven
Mr. Igawa, who used to belong to Hanshin Tigers of the Japanese professional baseball league as a pitcher and belongs to New York Yankees now, has been named as the first goodwill ambassador of "将棋(syo-gi) - Japanese chess" to popularize "syo-gi" in the USA, according to an article in the newpaper I read today. He often play syo-gi in his free time, actually, and he is reportedly a semiprofessional player. Since my eldest son is crazy about syo-gi and "go", I'd like him to have such a nice opportunity as Mr. Igawa has in the future. Let me teach him English as far as possible for that. :)
