2014 season team slogan　

In December 1998, the Yokohama Fulie Sports Club was founded, which would run Yokohama FC later. The club joined the Japan Football League (JFL) in 1999 that was launched the same year.
After winning the league title in two consecutive years, Yokohama FC entered the J. League in 2001.
This season marks the third year since Manager Motohiro Yamaguchi joined the team. Members of Yokohama FC are making all-out efforts to attain the goal of gaining promotion to J. League Division 1, something that has eluded the team since the 2007 season. The team’s slogan for this season reflects their strong determination to become a J1 club.
