"A Unique Team in Japan"
We are an associate member of the Ibaraki Football Association (IFA).
While there are many foreigner-led football teams in Japan, few are officially registered and actively compete in leagues under the Japan Football Association (JFA) system—like we do.
It’s no exaggeration to say that INTER TSUKUBA is truly one of a kind.
In fact, in 2025, we were featured in Access for All, a publication by the Japan Football Association highlighting inclusive and diverse football communities across the country.
Our roots lie in the Tsukuba International Soccer Group on Facebook, which now has over 500 members from all over the world. The group represents a wide range of nationalities and backgrounds.
Everyone is welcome—feel free to join us!
