The annual "Wanpaku Sumo Chuo-ku Tournament" was held on Sunday, May 20 at [General Sports Center] in Hamacho.
Early in the morning, the area near Hamacho Park was crowded with participating children, their parents, and local supporters. It seemed that not only the players themselves, but also the way of getting the power of their parents seemed to be transmitted.
At the beginning of the tournament, real wrestlers came from the Arashio room of the sumo wrestling, which is the only headquarters in Chuo-ku, received explanations with demonstrations such as rules, manners, and "bidden hands", checked notes, It is a good start of the game where everyone can do radio exercises well.
There are individual battles divided into men and women for each grade and team battles against schools in the afternoon, and the voltage of support increases in each. Mochiro games are important, but children will learn how to act neatly and fairly, whether they win or lose, and how to care for others through the game.
Some of the players were sorry for losing their regrets and tears. I want to sympathize, but there must be "lost and know". I just hope that children will be able to grow through various experiences.
Nevertheless, the eyes of the children who fell one step after the match and went home with their families were lively. The fulfillment of what we have worked hard will be better than anything.
We prayed that the children of Chuo-ku would grow up quickly and felt that we would like to support them.
By the way, the players who won the top position in this tournament will participate in the "Tokyo Block Tournament" scheduled to be held on June 23 as representatives of Chuo-ku. Beyond that, the national convention will be held in July. I would like to support you to achieve good results. "Wanpa Sumo National Convention"
I want to develop Chuo-ku as a town where local children can grow up honestly and healthy. Because these children are valuable human resources who will support the future region ...
