Japan's national sport is Sumo wrestling and
there is a centre entirely devoted to the sport called Kokugikan where
the public can watch it in action.
The Tokyo Dome is the place
to see another extremely popular sport in Japan, baseball, whereas soccer matches
usually take place at the Ajinomoto Stadium.
If you're more of a doer than a watcher, then contact the Tokyo Metropolitan
Sports Facilities Service, which is responsible for sports facilities in
metropolitan parks. Showa
Kinen Park also offers facilities for sports and outdoor activities.
There are tennis courts and swimming pools available at theJapan
Institute of Sports Sciences (JISS): National Agency for the Advancement of
Sports and Health (NAASH).
