Stadium

Their home stadium is Yurtec Stadium Sendai, in Izumi-ku, Sendai, although a few home games have also been played at nearby Miyagi Stadium.

Sendai Stadium ranks among the top stadiums in Japan for its presence, comfort, and accessibility, and was once ranked second in an evaluation by a famous Japanese football media. It was also used by Azzurri as a camp site during the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Miyagi Stadium is famous not only for the Japanese national team, but also for hosting matches of the Argentine national team in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

In 2022–23, it became the third place in the number of WE-League spectators.

Mascot

Myviy

  • First appearance at the Tokyo Girls Collection in February 2021.[1]
  • A girl from Deneb and raised in Sendai. LTAANA and VEGATTA are friends.
  • By combining "MY" from My Navi and "V" from Victory, the club named it "Myviy" as an easy-to-call name that will be familiar to many people, including supporters.
  • Not a specific animal. A character inspired by the star Deneb, one of the summer triangles. The motif is Mynavi Wave, a moon helmet that is associated with the stars and the city of Sendai.
