The J2/J3 100 Year Vision League, also known as the Meiji Yasuda J2/J3 100 Year Vision League (Japanese: 明治安田J2・J3百年構想リーグ), was a one-off football tournament organised by the Japan Professional Football League as part of the J.League 100 Year Vision League, held from 7 February to 7 June 2026.[1][2] All 40 clubs from the J2 League and the J3 League participated.

Overview

As the Japan Professional Football League (J.League) transitions to an "autumn-spring system" in 2026, the J.League 100 Year Vision League was a special tournament held during the transitional period. Meiji Yasuda Life, the league's title partner through the end of 2026,[3] will also serve as the title partner of this tournament.[4]

Although this tournament is a league competition organised by the J.League, there was no promotion or relegation based on the results of this tournament, including from the JFL.[5]

Format

Regional round (7 February – 24 May)

The 40 teams competing in the 2026–27 J2 League and J3 League were divided geographically into four divisions (East A, East B, West A, West B), consisting of 10 teams each. Each division played a double round-robin home and away format, for a total of 180 games. Clubs from the same prefecture were grouped together as much as possible. In addition, the number of clubs playing in snowy regions, where home games cannot be played in February and March was also taken into consideration.[6]

Rules

  • If the winners can not be decided within 90 minutes, a penalty shoot-out will be played to decide the winners. For this tournament, the usual points system is retained, but the winners of the shoot-out will receive an extra point.
  • Depending on the results, the following points will be awarded:
    • Wins after 90 minutes: 3 points
    • Penalty shootout wins: 2 points
    • Losses in penalty shootout: 1 point
    • Losses after 90 minutes: 0 points

Playoff round (30 May – 7 June)

Teams with the same placement in each group in the regional round will compete in a single-round knockout format (not a home-and-away format) to determine the final rankings (for example, matches between first-placed teams will decide 1st–4th place overall, matches between second-placed teams will decide 5th–8th place overall etc.).

The first matches will be between "East A v East B" and "West A v West B" and will be held as home games for East A and West A respectively, based on the final standings of the 2025 season.

If the winner is not determined after 90 minutes, two 15-minute periods of extra time will be played; if the winner is still not decided after extra time, a penalty shoot-out will be played.

Prize money

There is a total prize pool of ¥625 million (US$5.69 million). The top three teams at the end of the tournament received prize money of ¥150 million (US$1.37 million) for the winners, ¥75 million (US$683,371.3) for runners-up, and ¥25 million (US$227,790.43) for third place. During the regional round, each point is worth ¥500,000 (US$4,555.81). All teams also received an additional distributed fee of ¥60 million (US$546,697.04) based on their competition ranking.

Participating clubs

The 40 clubs participating in the J2 League and J3 League in the 2026–27 season participated.[7]

The group divisions were announced on 15 December 2025.[6] The asterisk indicates a club that is located in a snowy area and therefore cannot play home games at certain times (a maximum of four clubs can be in one group).
