All Japan Student Go Federation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The All Japan Student Go Federation (Zen Nihon Gakusei Igo Renmei (全日本学生囲碁連盟)) is a Japanese student Go organization for holding university Go championships. They have branches in each region (Kanto,[1] Kansai,[2] Kyushu,[3] Tohoku[4] etc.). For similar organizations, there is the American Collegiate Go Association in the United States.[5]

Differences with other organizations[edit]

In Japan, most Go tournaments are operated by Nihon Ki-in or Kansai Ki-in. All Japan Student Go Federation and their branches are focused for university-based tournaments. They are not under direct control but have close relationship with them.

Tournaments[edit]

They are holding various tournaments with corporate sponsors.[6][7]
