The Japan Football League 2009 was the twelfth season of the Japan Football League . Eighteen clubs took part in it. The season started on March 14th and ended on November 28th, 2010.

The extraordinary J. League member Gainare Tottori won the championship and got into the J. League Division 2 2011 on. Ryūtsū Keizai University FC rose from bottom of the table directly in the regional leagues, while the table penultimate Arte Takasaki was able to maintain his place in the relegation against Sanyo Electric Sumoto SC.

For the first time, FC Machida Zelvia, an Associate Member, was not admitted to promotion to the J. League , although it met the sporting criteria. The club from the Tokyo prefecture was the undoing at that time of the inadequate equipment of the local Machida Municipal Athletic Stadium .

mode

The clubs held a simple double round tournament . There were three points for a win; in the event of a tie, each team received a counter. The table was created according to the following criteria:

1. Number of points scored
2. Goal difference
3. Goals scored
4. Results of the games among themselves
5. Decision game or coin toss

For promotion to the J. League Division 2 2011 only clubs were eligible that had the Extraordinary Membership of the J. League , completed at the end of the season within the top four of the table and withstood a final review by the J. League .

The two worst teams were originally supposed to relegate directly to the regional leagues, and relegation games were also planned for the sixteenth against the third-placed team in the regional league finals . With the rise of Gainare Tottori in the J. League, however, only the bottom of the table rose directly and the penultimate took part in the relegation games.

Attendees

A total of eighteen teams took part in the season. The newly promoted J. League Division 2 2010 , New Wave Kitakyūshū , and the two relegated FC Kariya and Mitsubishi Motors Mizushima FC were no longer there . The team from Mizushima withdrew to the top league in Okayama Prefecture for financial reasons , while JFL founding member FC Kariya failed in relegation to third place in the 2009 regional league finals , Zweigen Kanazawa . In addition to Kanazawa, the champions and runners-up of the regional league finals, Matsumoto Yamaga FC and Tochigi Uva FC , also rose directly.

Before the start of this season, the promoted from Matsumoto also received the status of an extraordinary J. League member . The number of extraordinary members in the league thus remained at a total of four teams, with Gainare Tottori , FC Machida Zelvia and V-Varen Nagasaki being the other clubs with this status.

In addition, a club changed before the start of the season its structures and walked around by a company team in a classic club from TDK SC was Blaublitz Akita .

Relegation

After the end of the season, shortly before the turn of the year, the relegation games between a participant of the Japan Football League and a team in the regional league final round took place. The original plan stipulated that the sixteenth should play against the third party in the final round; after Gainare Tottori's ascent in the J. League, the sixteenth JEF Reserves was spared and the seventeenth Arte Takasaki, who was actually relegated, was named as a JFL participant. As opponents of the team from Gunma Prefecture , Sanyo Electric Sumoto SC qualified for the two games.

The first leg in Sumoto ended with a clear 3-0 for the higher-class team, so that Takasaki in the second leg in front of their own audience was enough to keep the class in a 1-1 draw.

	total		First leg	Return leg
Sanyo Electric Sumoto SC	1: 4	Arte Takasaki	0: 3	1: 1
