History

Founded in 2004 by the will of three former Gamba Osaka players - Junichi Inamoto, Ryuji Bando and Toru Araiba -, the club was initially named FC Ibanina, a name came up with the merge of the three players' name. Then in 2006 the club was renamed FC TIAMO: ti amo stays for Italian I love you. Araiba actually remained the only one managing the new-born club, adding the suffix Hirakata only in 2015. The club won several promotions along the years and now hopes to reach Japan Football League and possibly J3 League before 2019.[1]

In 2020 season, FC TIAMO Hirakata won the regional championship for the first time ever in their history and won promotion to the Japan Football League for the 2021 season.

The club will play their 3rd consecutive season in the Japan Football League on 2023.
