Manager Yasuhiro Higuchi will continue to manage YSCC Yokohama in 2017, the club has announced.
The 55-year-old, who has previously managed at several J1 clubs, led the team to a 16th-place finish in his debut J3 League season.
“I’m grateful for the offer to continue my work despite finishing in last place,” Higuchi said.
“In 2017 we want to apply everything we’ve learned this season and focus as a team on earning results.”
