Tochigi Soccer Club (栃木サッカークラブ, Tochigi Sakkākurabu), commonly referred to as Tochigi SC (栃木SC, Tochigi Esushi) is a Japanese football club based in Utsunomiya, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. They currently play in the J3 League, Japan's third tier of professional football after being relegated from J2 after the 2024 season.
History
Teachers in Tochigi Prefecture founded the club in 1953. They were initially called Tochigi Teachers' Soccer Club (栃木教員サッカー部 Tochigi Kyōin Sakkā Bu). They started to welcome players with other professions in 1994 and renamed themselves as Tochigi Soccer Club. In 1999, Tochigi won the Kanto Regional League and were promoted to the Japan Football League after finishing runners-up in the Regional League play-off. In March 2005, they announced that they would set up a task force to give a serious consideration to turn professional and try to gain J.League status.
In January 2007, they achieved J.League Associate Membership status and in the 2008 season they secured qualification for promotion to professional status on 16 November 2008. On 1 December 2008, promotion was made official by J.League and Tochigi had competed in J.League Division 2 from 2009.
In 2015, Tochigi finished bottom and were relegated to J3 League for the first time in their history, the third and lowest professional level in the league system. After two seasons, they returned to J2 League from 2018 season who finished as runner-up in 2017.
On 27 October 2024, Tochigi officially relegated to J3 League for second time after defeat from Shimizu S-Pulse 0-1 at home and ending seven years stint in second tier with two games left.
The team's colors are blue and white, which symbolize their identity and connection to the local community. Home matches are held at the Tochigi Green Stadium, a venue that fosters an electric atmosphere, drawing supporters from across the prefecture. The club emphasizes teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship, reflecting the values of Japanese culture.
Tochigi SC is dedicated to nurturing young players through its youth academy, providing a pathway for aspiring athletes to reach the professional level. The club's vision extends beyond the pitch, as it actively engages in community initiatives and promotes soccer as a means of bringing people together.
With a focus on growth and ambition, Tochigi SC continues to work towards its goal of climbing the ranks of Japanese football, aiming for promotion to higher divisions and establishing itself as a competitive force in the sport.
