Clubs

2018 season saw two teams promoted to J2 League: FC Ryukyu won the championship by a landslide, while Kagoshima United FC grant themselves a ticket for 2019 seasons of 2nd tier with still one game to play. From second division, we had a double relegation for the first time: Kamatamare Sanuki are back to third tier after five seasons, but they were promoted in 2013 from Japan Football League, since J3 League was still to come. The same goes for Roasso Kumamoto, who are back to the third level of Japanese football after more than a decade.

Also, Japan Football League saw the promotion of Vanraure Hachinohe, who came 3rd in JFL and they booked their first pro-season in their history.
