Statistics of Japan Football League in the 2010 season.

Overview

At the end of the 2009 season, three new clubs were promoted from the Japanese Regional Leagues by virtue of their final placing in the Regional League promotion series:

Matsumoto Yamaga !Matsumoto Yamaga and Hitachi Tochigi Uva !Hitachi Tochigi Uva were promoted automatically.
Zweigen Kanazawa !Zweigen Kanazawa won the play-off series against FC Kariya !FC Kariya.

Before the season corporate TDK SC !TDK SC were renamed to Blaublitz Akita !Blaublitz Akita and started operations as an independent football club. Hitachi Tochigi Uva S.C. has dropped the company prefix and changed its name to simply Tochigi Uva F.C.

Matsumoto Yamaga were approved as J. League associate members at the annual meeting in February. Zweigen Kanazawa applied for the membership later in April but the application was not accepted because of incomplete documentation.

Gainare Tottori !Gainare Tottori are the first club to be promoted to J. League Division 2 as champions since Ehime FC !Ehime FC in 2005 season.
