After World War II, in 1953 he became the coach for the factory women's volleyball team of Nichibo Kaizuka, namely Oriental Witches which started from a factory volleyball team located in Kaizuka City and evolved into the Japanese National Team.[3] Oriental Witches achieved 175 consecutive wins by Daimatsu's severe training, so he was called "Demon Daimatsu".[1] As the coach of Japanese National Team, he led the Japanese Women's Team to a silver medal in the World Championship in 1960, a gold medal in the World Championship again in 1962 and a gold medal in Tokyo Olympics in 1964.[1][3]
