Club Fields Norbritz Hokkaido (クラブフィールズ・ノルブリッツ北海道, Kurabufīruzu Noruburittsu Hokkaidō) commonly known as Norbritz Hokkaido (ノルブリッツ北海道, Noruburittsu Hokkaidō) is a Japanese football club from Ebetsu, Hokkaido, within the Sapporo metropolitan area. They play in the Hokkaido League, the regionalized fifth level of the Japanese football league system.
History[edit]
It was founded on 1985 as Hokkaido Electric Power Company F.C., as a branch of the regional utility. In 2004 the club changed its name to Norbritz, and began as an independent entity. The club name of Norbritz is a portmanteau of the German words "nord" and "blitz" (albeit improperly romanised; the correct should be Norblitz), meaning Northern Lightning.[1]
They have won the Hokkaido League a record 18 times. In 2012, after winning the Hokkaido League, Norbritz played the Regional League promotion series, ending in third place and therefore qualifying to play a play-off series against the 17th-placed team of the 2012 Japan Football League, Tochigi Uva F.C. They barely lost the series on penalties and therefore missed the chance to play in the JFL.
