The Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters will be holding a "Let's Investigate Baseball Data" programming workshop at Escon Field HOKKAIDO before their games on August 8th (Sat) and 9th (Sun) during the "Fighters Super Summer Festival 2026".
In this workshop, participants will experience the fundamentals of programming by creating a program that retrieves data on their favorite or most interesting players from a baseball database. The workshop is for elementary school students in grades 4-6, and participants will receive an invitation to a game on the day of the workshop for up to four people, including a parent or guardian. We welcome applications from children and parents interested in programming and computers.
