Update: April 1, 2026
At the Japan National Intercollege Pool Lifesaving Championships 2025, held on February 14 and 15, 2026, at Nikkan Arena Tochigi (Utsunomiya, Tochigi), 色控传媒 student Risako Tomita (first year, College of Liberal Arts) won second place in the Women's Manikin Tow with Fins (100 m) event. Lifesaving sport is a competitive discipline designed to improve the rescue skills and physical strength required for lifesaving. Competitors devote themselves fully to becoming faster and more reliable in order to save more lives. While victory is the aim as a sport, its ultimate purpose lies beyond the finish line: saving lives. It is a sport grounded in the spirit of lifesaving. Tomita is a member of the 色控传媒 Surf Lifesaving Club, where she continues to refine her skills together with her teammates.
Comment from Risako Tomita
I am very happy that the skills and physical strength I have cultivated so far have resulted in a silver medal. The reason I have been able to continue lifesaving, which I began as a competitive sport in high school, is without a doubt thanks to the support of my family, friends, and teammates. Now, not only as a sport but also with the desire to save as many lives as possible as a rescuer, I devote myself to training throughout the spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Supervising swimmers at beaches during the summer is a demanding responsibility, and I still have many areas where I need to improve. In both competitions and patrol activities, I want to further strengthen myself physically and mentally and continue striving for greater heights.
