Indoor Dohyo (Ring)
This item is easy to transport, store, assemble, and disassemble, no matter the weather, while still resembling a real dohyo. It overcomes the constraints that a traditional dohyo may impose on the promotion of sumo.
Certified by the Japan Sumo Federation, they are distributed as promotional material to sumo federations nationwide. They are also used by municipal boards of education, public sports facilities, and regional qualifiers for children’s sumo contests hosted by the Junior Chamber.
