Chugoku Regional League in 2016 is worthy of remark

It seems that the league has kicked off an era of expected fierce competition among powerful clubs aiming for Japan Football League and J League in the future.


The champion hopefuls in 2016 season are Matsue City FC and Dezzolla Shimane.In the recent seasons, two clubs have finished in the top group. 


Former JFL club, Mitsubishi Motors Mizushima F.C. is the one to be reckoned with. Mizushima has shown stable performances in recent years.


SC Tottori Dreams, which consist almost entirely of former Gainare Tottori's men, got promoted from Tottori Prefectural League. The club can be dark-horse because the club showed overwhelming strength in the prefectural league last year.


Hatsukaichi FC is also the one, which moved up from Hiroshima Prefectural League.It should be noted that Former Japan national, KUBO Tatsuhiko plays for the club. He plays a mainstay, aiming for J League division 3 in the near future.
