Hi everyone,

We're pleased to offer excerpts of the documentary "Kokoyakyu: High School Baseball," directed by Kenneth Eng. The film follows two very different high school teams as they compete to participate in the national high school baseball tournament at Koshien Stadium. On our site, you can find excerpts along with background information. We hope you will find these excerpts useful in your teaching.

The film will be broadcast tonight (Aug 26) on PBS.
