Saturday saw Footy Japan host our final 7s tournament of the season. In recent season the Charity 7s has been very popular and this year was no different. We had a mix of new and old teams competing. For the first time in a few years Footy Japan entered a team which consisted of the British Football Academy coaches.
In the months leading up to the tournament the team was rocked with the news that Coach Simon was to attend a wedding on the same day. How would the...
A boring FA Cup Final, a lovely Royal Wedding and 2 new Cup holders. What a Saturdays it was.
We broke from tradition this year as it was the Cup Final that kicked off first. Pumas were looking to go one better than last season by winning the Cup. BEFC were looking at giving their manager Ben the perfect send off before he hangs up his armband.
The game was very stop start with some heavy challenges coming in from the Embassy players. Pumas were...
After a break for Golden Week, the TML returned with 3 big Division 1 matches. BEFC and Zion were battling it out to stay in the division. FC International were looking at keeping hold of 2nd position. The other match saw Tokyo Hibernian looking to secure their 9th TML title.
They were up against Swiss Kickers who were looking at stopping their old enemies in securing another title.
This season Tomomitsu Kunii has been on fire in front of goal....
Sunday evening saw the top 2 teams in Division 2 battle it out. Dutch FC had only dropped 2 points all season and that was in their opening match. They were up against a Shane FC team chasing their first ever promotion.
The game was played at a high intensity which is something that can't always be said in Division 3. Shane FC's played a in-your-face but fair game. This disrupted the usual slick passing that Dutch have shown all season.
This weeks FJ TOTW is a club who is roaring up the table and if their form continues they will be promoted to Division 1.
Lions FC are unbeaten in the league since November 25th. Their opening 6 matches of the season should inconsistency. LWWLLW, since then it's been non stop league victories apart from a 1-1 draw v fellow promotion hopefuls Suns FC. On Saturday, Lions were without their manager and goal keeper Akihito, and faced Guts SC. Abu took charge...
Referee Nick had the privilege of refereeing the 2 standout teams for this weeks award. The first nomination goes to Real Celts. Having recently purchased a new kit it was only fitting that someone forgot the kit bag. Some quick thinking from the guys, and Real Celts were donning some lovely white sports shirts which were purchased from the near by sports shop....
Hachioji Park had the privilege of hosting the top teams in Division 2 & 3. After Dutch FC had brushed aside KGFC in the early kick off it was time for Suns FC to continue their promotion charge.
The opposition was Barbarians. The game kicked off with the Barbs Captain doing his usual trick of turning up late so Suns had a man advantage. They took...
In my 10 years involved in playing and running this wonderful league only Shane FC & Clash have failed to gain promotion from the leagues lowest division.
My first TML season I was a proud Shane FC player. I was wowed by their Plate victory in 2006/07...
