[[[[Foreword]]]]
A week has passed since the end of the WE League 2025/26 season. It seems that preparations for the next season have already begun at each team. Player transfers are also intense. In particular, the move of Akane Okuma of Kobe to play overseas is highly attracting the author’s attention.

[ [ [ Nadeshiko League 2026 Week 11 ] ] ]

[ Blogger’s Preview on May 22nd ]
The top-of-the-table clashes between Nagoya (3) and Yunogo (6), and Kamogawa (4) and Miyazaki (2) are attracting attention. Whether Shizuoka can recover from last week’s loss and whether Iga can continue their winning streak will also be key points to watch.

[ Overall Review ]
In the top-of-the-table clashes between Nagoya (3) and Yunogo (6), and Kamogawa (4) and Miyazaki (2), the higher-ranked teams won by two goals. Miyazaki and Nagoya are now chasing Shizuoka, who won this week. Iga is also in fourth place with three consecutive wins, just one point behind Nagoya. Kamogawa, who lost at home, is now a little further behind. Seagulls, Yunogo, Ehime, Setagaya, Nittaidai, and Harima are all clustered together within five points. Ichihara is in a quagmire, having lost all 11 of their first half of the league matches.
Shizuoka’s Sayuna Nakajima achieved a hat-trick.
