SS Kumamoto Announce Sasamo As Coach For Street Fighter League Season

Japanese Street Fighter League team Saishunkan Sol Kumamoto has announced a new addition to its roster for the upcoming season.

After recruiting Kobayan from AMG, the team has gone further by signing Sasamo from IGZIST to serve as coach for the 2025 campaign.

Sasamo, a Brazilian-Japanese player, is a seasoned competitor who has featured on the Street Fighter League stage for the past two seasons. In 2023, he played for SSK and was part of the squad that finished third overall. In the following season, he joined Team Ibushigin alongside Kakeru and Yanai. Although the team did not make the playoffs, they still delivered a respectable performance. Earlier this year, Ibushigin lost most of its core players, with Cosa moving to SSK, Kakeru joining ZETA Division, and Sasamo transferring to IGZIST.

Now stepping into a new role, Sasamo expressed his excitement on social media. He stated that while he would have loved to compete in SFL Japan as a player, he is honored to contribute as a coach. He added that it is his hope that his guidance will help Saishunkan Sol Kumamoto claim their first-ever SFL championship.

The current Saishunkan Sol Kumamoto team roster consists of:
