Re: Jungyou Tournament?

Ozumo Oza Kettei-sen (Grand Sumo Throne Deciding Championship) is the name
of two-day annual event in Nagoya in October. It is sponsored by Chunichi
Shimbun, the largest circulated daily newpaper in Nagoya area.

It is sandwitched by Aki-Jungyo but not treated as a part of "jungyo"
because Nagoya is the site of hombasho in July. After Aki-basho Sumo Kyokai
takes Aki-Jungyo to Kanto, Hokuriku and Tokai area annually. Nagoya is the
largest city and considered a part of Tokai area.
