The team was founded in 1947 as "Toray Kuryukai" at the Shiga Plant of Toray Industries, Inc. The name "Kuryukai" comes from the nine players in the team and the "Crane Wing Formation" in Sun Tzu's "The Art of War".
In 1961, the team won the title in the 9-player division of the All-Japan Championship and the 6-player and 9-player divisions of the National Sports Festival. In 1963, the team won its second title in the 9-player division of the All-Japan Championship and moved its home base to Mishima the following year.
In the Japan Industrial League (then V.Challenge League), the team was promoted in the 6th league in 1974 but was relegated five years later and returned in 1988. In the first V LEAGUE, the team advanced to the final in first place but finished fourth in the final league. After a slump, the team finished second in the 5th, 6th, and 8th V LEAGUE. In the 10th V LEAGUE, the team narrowly missed the relegation playoffs. However, in the 11th V LEAGUE, under the slogan "Total Power", the team achieved its first championship by continuing its winning streak of 20 games from the opening of the league.
In the 2008/09 season, the team won its second championship in four seasons by defeating Sakai in the championship game. The team won its third championship in eight seasons in the 2016/17 season. The team aims to be loved by everyone and grateful for the environment in which they can play volleyball. This season, under the slogan "BREAK THE TARGET", the team aims to break through the target of winning the championship.[1]
Toray Arrows joined Asian Club Championship to represent Japan for the first time in 2018 and ranked the 5th place.
