Saitama Jets 2nds 1 - 3 Stoneds (12/04/2008) - No Report. Saitama Jets 2nds 1 - 8 Hunted (06/04/2008) - No Report. Saitama Jets 5 - 2 WS Geckoes (30/03/2008) - The Jets lined up against the Wall Street Geckoes, the only team they have beaten this season on (yet another) wind swept night at Hachioji Park on the evening of March 30th in what turned out to be an open and entertaining game. Saitama Jets 1 - 6 Swiss Kickers (20/03/2008) - No Report Saitama Jets 2nds 2 - 0 Shane FC (16/03/2008) - Shane FC are always an interesting side to play.

Saitama JETs FC began life in 1996 when five footballers found themselves working in Saitama, Japan and without a team to play for. They decided to start their own team and Saitama Jets was formed. Being a mixture of Brits and Americans it was hard to decide on a name for the team. Personal allegiances, for the Brits especially, ruled out anything along the lines of United, City, Albion, and Forest, so the slightly American name of Saitama Jets FC was settled upon.
