2018 season in Chugoku Regional League is worthy of remark

In 2018, it is expected that there will be fierce competition among powerful clubs aiming for Japan Football League and J League in the future.


One of the champion hopefuls is Matsue City FC. They finished in the 2nd position last year and disappointedly missed the chance to promote to the upper league.


Another club in Shimane prefecture, Dezzolla Shimane struggled in the mid group of the league for the last two seasons. The club are expected to compete with the above rival this upcoming season.


Former JFL club, Mitsubishi Motors Mizushima FC is the one to watch out. Last year, Mizushima won the championship of the league. They can be one of the champion hopefuls this year as well.
