History

Founded as Hyogo Teachers' Soccer Club in 1976, the following year it was renamed the Hyogo Teachers' Kicking Club. They renamed the club in advance of the 1988 season to Central SC Kobe.

In 2002 the club renamed to Central Kobe, dropping the SC. In 2005, the club rebranded, and was renamed Banditonce Kobe, from the mix of Spanish words Banditos (Spanish for "bandits") and Once (Spanish for "eleven"). [1] In 2008 the club moved from Kobe to the city of Kakogawa in Hyōgo prefecture. Konigs-Krone had been a sponsor for the team, but they withdrew from that deal.

They have played 48 of 49 seasons the top division of Kansai Soccer League, getting relegated only once which was in 1999. They made and immediate return to the top division by winning the Hyogo division 1 title in 2000. They have won Kansai division one title on six occasions and in 2007 they finished fourth in Regional Leagues, just failing to qualify for the Japan Football League. They also featured nine times in Emperor's Cup, reaching the 4th round in 2006, eventually getting knocked out by FC Tokyo.

In 2020 the club rebranded again and are now called Cento Cuore Harima."Cento Cuore" is an Italian word that means "100" (a symbol of "lot" and is also derived from the J.League Centennial Initiative) and Cuore meaning "heart".[2] "The hearts of many people gather together and become a club that represents the Hyogo-Harima area" and "Aiming to realize the philosophy of the J.League 100-year concept, aiming to be a community-based sports club involving people of multiple generations"
