Wikipedia - Montedio Yamagata
Montedio Yamagata (モンテディオ山形, Montedio Yamagata) is a Japanese professional association football club based in Tendo, Yamagata. The club currently playing in J2 League, the Japanese second tier of professional football.
History
The club based in Tsuruoka was founded in 1984 as NEC Yamagata Soccer Club. It gained the promotion to the Japan Football League (former) in 1994. After renaming itself as Montedio Yamagata in 1996, it has been playing in J. League Division 2 since its inaugural 1999 season.
On 30 November 2008, they were promoted to J. League Division 1 for the first time. They achieved their highest league placing of 13th in 2010. However, in 2011, two strong rental players from Kashima Antlers go back to their own team. This weakened the squad which also suffered many injuries through the year and Montedio were relegated back to J.League Division 2 at the end of 2011. At the end of the season, the manager, Shinji Kobayashi, stepped down even though many fans glorified his accomplishment for the past 4 years.[]
Yamagata returned to the J1 after spending three seasons in the J2 by winning the J1/J2 promotion playoff final in 2014. They returned to the J2 for the 2016 season, having spent only one season at the J1. The club is currently playing their 8th consecutive season in the J2 on 2023.
The team's colors are predominantly blue and white, symbolizing the serene landscapes of Yamagata. Montedio Yamagata plays its home matches at the ND Soft Stadium Yamagata, a modern facility that provides an electric atmosphere for fans and players alike. The club's name, "Montedio," reflects its connection to the mountainous region of Yamagata, emphasizing the team's roots and community ties.
Montedio Yamagata is recognized for its strong emphasis on teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship, values that resonate deeply with its supporters. The club has a reputation for nurturing young players through its youth academy, contributing to the development of soccer in the region. With a focus on both competitive success and community engagement, Montedio Yamagata continues to strive for excellence on and off the pitch, aiming to bring pride to Yamagata and its loyal fans.
