The Nagasaki Velca (長崎ヴェルカ, ながさきヴェルカ, Nagasaki Veruka) is a Japanese professional basketball team based in Nagasaki Prefecture that competes in the first division of the B.League.

Franchise history

Foundation

In 2020, Japanet announced the creation of Nagasaki Prefecture's first professional basketball club.[1] The club was formally launched on July 10, and will compete in B3 or the third division of the B.League beginning the 2021–22 season.[2][3] The company Nagasaki Velca Co., Ltd. (株式会社長崎ヴェルカ) was established with Hideki Iwashita (岩下 英樹) as the president and CEO, and Akito Takata (髙田 旭人) as the director. The company is responsible for the operation and promotion of the basketball club as well as the management of the athletes. The company headquarters is located in Manzaimachi, Nagasaki City, Nagasaki Prefecture.[1]

On January 26, 2021, the team announced that Takumi Ito will serve as the head coach and general manager.[4][5]

Naming the team

In July 2020, the management asked suggestions for the team name. On September 15, they revealed that the 2,324 entries were narrowed down to three prospects: Nagasaki Jabuzz (長崎ジャブズ), Nagasaki Haretto (長崎ハレット) and Nagasaki Velca (長崎ヴェルカ).[3][6][7] To select the team name, online voting was done and voting events were also held in different parts of the Nagasaki Prefecture.[3][7] On October 30, the club name Nagasaki Velca was unveiled.[6][8] "Velca" is derived from the words "welcome," "well community" and "victory."[1][3][6][8]

Promotion to B2

The team finished their inaugural season with 42 wins and 3 losses, setting a B3 record with a .933 winning percentage. They were subsequently named B3 Champions and earned a promotion to B2 or the second division of the B.League.[9][10][11] On May 17, 2022, the team announced that Takumi Ito will continue to serve as the general manager[12] and Kenjiro Maeda, who was the team's associate head coach, will take over as the head coach beginning the 2022–23 season.[13] On May 29, B.League announced that Nagasaki will compete in the West conference of B2.[14]
