About the brand ❤️
The J2 League, launched in 1999, is the professionally operated second tier of Japanese football, coordinated by the Japan Professional Football League (J.League). Its administration is centered in Japan (with the main offices in Tokyo), overseeing a competitive system with promotion to J1 and relegation to J3. From humble beginnings, J2 has become pivotal in developing domestic talent and fostering regional club growth. With formats evolving—like promotion playoffs and annual league size adjustments—it remains a dynamic, integral part of Japan’s football structure.
