TKC Strawberry Arena (Kanuma General Gymnasium)

TKC Strawberry Arena is a gymnasium located in Kanuma, Tochigi Prefecture, and is one of the venues where the B-League's Utsunomiya Brexit team plays its official games.

Getting to the Stadium

The gymnasium is located next to the license center.
Therefore, there is a city bus service from JR Utsunomiya.
However, there are no night buses, so if you want to go, it would be better to limit yourself to daytime games.
Take bus No. 41 bound for Driver's License Center and Nuriki Garage from Bus Terminal No. 12 at the west exit of Utsunomiya Station.
Time required: about 40 minutes  
Fare: About 600 yen (one way)

For access by car, please check with the team website or the team.

The bus stop at the west exit of Utsunomiya Station looks like this.
The photo shows bus stop #8, but the bus bound for the Driver's License Center is #12.

The area in front of the west exit of Utsunomiya Station is well developed.
Therefore, it is easy to find once you get out.
For regular Brex games (Brex Arena), walk from the east exit, which is the opposite exit.
