AC Nagano Parceiro Ladies is a club defined by its deep partnership with its regional community and a history of ambitious transformation. From its origins in 2000 and the pivotal 2009 merger with the men’s club, the “Orange Lioness” has pursued a mission to be a beacon of inspiration for girls in the Hokushinetsu region. This ambition culminated in a legendary “Golden Era,” which saw the team storm to an unprecedented 3rd-place finish in the top flight in 2016. Now a founding member of the professional WE League, the club is forging a new identity, committed to a sophisticated, attacking philosophy while remaining the pride of Nagano.
