Ajigawa stable (2022)
Stable of sumo wrestlers
Ajigawa stable (安治川部屋, Ajigawa-beya) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Isegahama ichimon, or group of stables. It was formed by former sekiwake Aminishiki in December 2022 after he became independent from Isegahama stable.[1][2] The stable's independence was formalized by an opening event for new stable supporters which was organized later that same month.[3] As of June 2023, the stable has 4 wrestlers, with 3 wrestlers actively competing.
At first, the stable was temporarily hosted in the Senda District pending construction of a new building in the Kōtō ward of Tokyo. The new building was inaugurated on 16 June 2023 in the presence of tate-gyōji Shikimori Inosuke and masters Isegahama and Asakayama.[4] It was also announced that a presentation ceremony for local residents would be held on 18 June.[5]
