This logo that we use for the J-Dream team was originally used for the projects and activities held for the commemoration of 400 years of relations between the Netherlands and Japan in the year 2000, so not only does it represent the improvement of football skills, but it is also surely a perfect logo for our organization, one of whose important goals is to conduct international exchange with the people of the Netherlands.
We have been using this logo with great care since in the spring of 2002.
This commemorative logo was designed through the medium of the internet by a Dutch designer, Ms. Anne Stienstra and a Japanese designer, Mr. Daizaburo Murai.
Two flags, two countries. The fan shape represents Japan and the fan-shaped island of Dejima inside this represents the Netherlands. Japan is situated to the south-east of the Netherlands and the Netherlands is situated to the north-west of Japan.
The ship with two sails represents both countries.
The uppermost section represents the flags while the line in the lower section represents the water line.
The number 400 represents 400 years of relations between Japan and the Netherlands.
