Our History:

Our club has a rich history dating back to 1998, when it was founded by a small group of less than six Japanese women residing in the greater Zürich area. Initially participating in the Plausch tournament, we experienced continuous success, leading us to be recommended for participation in League 5 and advanced to League 4. As we progressed, our membership grew to approximately 15 individuals, resulting in the formation of two teams competing in both the League and the Plausch. Despite some members transitioning to new locations as expatriates, our strong connection and shared memories remained intact. In response to the challenges posed by the Covid pandemic, we made the decision to consolidate into a single team and return to participating in the Plausch, emphasizing unity and camaraderie.
