SRC Hiroshima (SRC広島 Soccer Representative Club Hiroshima) is a football (soccer) club based in Hiroshima, which is located in Hiroshima Prefecture in Japan. They play in the Chūgoku Soccer League, which is part of Japanese Regional Leagues.
History
The club was founded in 1953 as a school-club, formed by teachers (like Renofa Yamaguchi in their beginnings).[1] SRC Hiroshima has been a key-member of Chugoku Soccer League, since they've been a part of this regional league from 1973. They came down to Hiroshima Prefectural League three times, but they have also come back as many times to play again in the actual 5th level of Japanese football. They featured four times in the Emperor's Cup: first in 1996, then again in 2014, 2016 and mostly 2017, when SRC reached 2nd round. In 2016, SRC Hiroshima also won Chugoku Soccer League for the first time.
