I have not yet seen a Japanese spelling of this game's name. I currently do not know who brought Soccerette in to Japan, but I assume it was Taito. This game has not appeared in any catalogs or advertisements that I have seen.
For a long time, the game was front-and-center in this photo from Taito, and I was unable to find a name.

Here is another iconic promotional photo of the Jamiesons' company, circa 1972:

I found one reference online saying the game was from the 1960s, but I am unsure. We at least know it was made by 1972.
