BEFC kept their title challenge untouched with a record 9th straight win in all competitions over an athletic and physically strong Fussa team. The final score of 1 - 0 could have been a lot more, with BEFC having one of those familiar games of last season where the ball didn't want to end up in...
BEFC knew well in advance that the game vs Zion would be a true test of their credentials as a Division 1 worthy club and the match didn't disappoint. Starting strongly BEFC went ahead with a slick passing move finished by Takahashi striking a blow in the TML Golden Boot race against his 2nd placed...
With some last moment drop-outs and another temporary goalkeeper the match against Vagabonds went exactly as predicted. Lots of sustained pressure against a hard to crack Vagabonds defence, who like to counter or play for territory with thrown-ins and balls in the air. It was about being patient...
With the newly formed BEFC Ladies growing with every step, BELFC entered a team to join BEFC in the MIFA Embassy Cup. For a new team they played well finishing 9th by beating Norway at penalties. Captaining the team for the tournament was Izzy Jasper who was selected the Adecco BELFC MVP for her...
Pulling together a last minute and unfamiliar team after a series of drop outs and *betrayal*, BEFC battled valiantly under difficult circumstances in the MIFA Embassy Cup. Despite some good control and chances BEFC lacked the luck and decisive edge to make the margins of victory. However this isn'...
The early moring start against JETRO didn't start well with traffic and train accidents stopping players getting to the pitch before kick off. Nor was it a good day for the debutant Ririo Oshima, who after setting up the first goal was sidelined with a nasty hospital worthy injury in a crunching...
Matches against Lions are always a huge battle with lots of tough and intense play. This time was no different and BEFC very quickly felt themselves under a heap of pressure until a quick formational switch restored some balance to the flow of the game. It didn't help that Lions had gone and...
Despite a number of regulars out of action, BEFC continued their winning run against a determined BFC Vagabonds team, who parked a formidable bus and threw down the challenge to try and break through it. A frustrating match, set up to be frustrating by the opponent took a lot of patience and...
Over consqecutive years of improvement, BEFC went after the top spot in the 8th AMIA Futsal Competition and came away victorious, undefeated with no goals conceded in all games.

This year's Friendly Cup was an all action affair with some truly entertaining matches, a miraculous comeback, hordes of goals and a nail-biting penalty shoot out. With Team Adecco not in attendance it came down to each Friendly Cup team captain to nominate their Most Valuable Player of the...
BEFC rolled out the red carpet to give Division 3 Champions Musketeers a proper welcome to the second division with a 5 - 1 thumping, despite going down 0 - 1 midway through the first half. Having never faced the Musketeers it took BEFC a short while to figure their threat, focusing at first on...
BEFC's strong start to the season kept grooving against ex-Div 1 relegates El Diego and some familiar Division 1 ringers from Panthers and Pumas FC in Diego shirts! :p Not to be put off by this, (you have to be Division 1 to get into and stay Division 1) BEFC set upon them in a tenacious fashion...
On a hot season opening day in Yokohama BEFC gave SUNS FC a warm welcome to Division 2 with an outstanding 8 - 1 demolition. With the full team back from the off-season we were waiting if pre-season training and intentions to be a Division 1 team was going to shine versus a former Division 1 outfit...
Alo has been making a reputation for himself in competitions so far for being MVP, and if not missing it by a tiny margin. This time was no different as he bagged four goals and continued to be the unrelenting menace of the opposition that he is. Commenting recently that his battery doesn't work in...
Getting their pre-season underway, BEFC shellshocked Kodansha with a 6 - 0 revenge. This was a great team display with everyone communicating and working together to play the tactics, keep the shape and create strong linked up play, passing patterns across the park. Man of the Match was hotly...
