Thanks, Yoshinori! Are there still several people pulling for JAWA? Are there other groups in Japan that pull? I would like to know how popular armwrestling is in Japan.

Thanks Lads  really appreciate it. I have everything crossed that the recognition of the Sport Pan Europe & in fact Globally (working behind the scenes on that one ) really starts to develop. Armwrestling has tremendous potential if everyone pulls in the same direction but little steps will ultimately improve the Sports global perception in the long term Cheers Neil  |

Thanks, Yoshinori! Are there still several people pulling for JAWA? Are there other groups in Japan that pull? I would like to know how popular armwrestling is in Japan. Hello, Coley Jones. I answer your question. JAWA and AJAF exist in Japan. (like American League and National League of Major League.) A lot of players belong to JAWA. Yoshi belongs to JAWA. Puller's who belongs to JAWA is participating in the tournament of the United States and Poland, England in the team. (BTW, Arnold Classic, USAA Nationals, ARM WARS, ZLOTY TUR.) But, the puller who participates in ARM WARS in July might be only Yoshi. Armwrestling is not popular sports in Japan. The ball game and combative sport are liked in Japan. gMajor ball games in Japan.h Baseball, Soccer, Basketboll, Tennis, Volleyball gMajor combative sports in Japan.h Judo, Karate, Boxing, Kick boxing, Ultimate. These have professional organizations respectively, and the professional player exists. As for Armwrestling, it is not major compared with these. But, Armwrestling becomes active recently as the match is broadcast by TV. |
