The Ibaraki Golden Golds is a team playing in the working class amateur league (or however you translate it - the shakai league). The team is owned and managed by a famous comedy show star Hakimoto Kinichi. The club started this year, and in their first "All Japan Club Tournament," reached to the semis before losing to eventual winner Nomo Baseball Club.
That's all I know about them. I was in Japan in early September and watched a little of the Golden Golds game against Nomo Baseball Club.
Hope it helps.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.

When I was in the Yomiuri Giants clubshop, I saw merchenise for a team called the "Golden Golds." They had a panda for the logo. Are they some sort of minor league team?
