A much changed Sala FC team turned up at a wet Fukuda Denshi looking to gain their first Division 1 victory for a few years. Braces from the midfield dynamo Shu Nakatani and...
Last season saw Kanto Celts take 4th spot ahead of Panthers FC by a goal difference of +2. Saturday the capacity crowd at Hachioji Park got to see how both teams had improved their squad over the Summer months. It was time for Panthers FC to parade their new Summer signing Nicolai Jessen-Peterson, the most prolific forward to come from Denmark since Brian Laudrup and Mikkel Beck. Kanto Celts are still coming to terms with former Captain Andrew McGoverns late last minute...

As the final whistle blew on a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Hodogaya, Zion FC became the first team to record back to back victories this season. They may be the only team to have played 2 matches but consecutive victories is not an easy thing to do in TML's middle division.
Two goals from Yusuke Toda and goals each from Takeishi Yoshikatsu and Yusuke...
Some people fear the Summer 7s. A 9:30 kick off, an expected finish for finalists around 4pm all in 30 plus degrees, with constant sun exposure and playing the game they love on a hot artificial pitch. It’s now been 4 years since the above weather conditions have shone out from behind the clouds. Given the usual boiling Tokyo temperatures it seems like we have been lucky over the last few years. This...

At the 7s, British Embassy FC played well as did Cup Runners up Panthers FC but Swiss Kickers can claim a double. Summer 7s Cup Winners and also the first FJ TOTW winners.

With only 2 matches played last weekend It was between Zion FC and Real Celts for having the honor of receiving the last FJ TOTW award of the season. As they scored 6 goals and one more than the Celts, Zion FC have won it. With 3 goals in the first half from Kohei Shiozaki, Yuki Kadowaki and Yusuke Kawano, there was no coming back for Dutch FC. Another 3 goals late in the 2nd half made it an enjoyable evenings work for the men in green. Well done Zion FC.
