Soccer Representative Club Hiroshima (サッカー代表クラブ広島, Sakkā Daihyō Kurabu Hiroshima) commonly known as SRC Hiroshima (SRC広島, Esu Eru Shi 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 teachers' association club (similar to
Tochigi S.C.,
Gainare Tottori and
Renofa Yamaguchi).[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 have been relegated to Hiroshima Prefectural League three times, but they have also been promoted 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. In 2019, they won it for the second time. In 2020, they played an alternative championship (CSL Championship) following the cancelation of the
2020 Japanese Regional Leagues, in which they were crowned with the title after beating Baleine Shimonoseki by the score of 2–0 in the final.
