Japan Soccer League
, or JSL, was the top flight association football league in Japan between 1965 and 1992, and was the precursor to the current professional league, the J.League. JSL was the second national league of a team sport in Japan after the professional Japanese Baseball League that was founded in 1936. JSL was the first-ever national league of an amateur team sport in Japan. History Each JSL team represented a corporation, and like Japanese baseball teams, went by the name of the company that owned the team.

Clubs could join in by winning the All Japan Senior Football Championship cup competition and then winning a promotion/rel ...
