TEPCO Mareeze (東京電力女子サッカー部マリーゼ) was a women's football team which played in Division 1 of Japan's Nadeshiko League. It was a founding member of the league in 2000. The club was disbanded after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster; primary sponsor TEPCO had managed the Fukushima nuclear power plant, and all of its players were TEPCO employees. Many of its players were transferred to a new club, Vegalta Sendai Ladies, in January 2012.[1]
