Competition process:

Sumo is played on an earthen platform (called "earthen table" in Japan) with a height of 40-60 cm, a square of 727 cm and a slope of 40-50. The central site of the earth platform is circular, with a diameter of 455 cm, and the north side of the site is positive. There is a canopy on the field, with four colors of colored cloth hanging at the four corners, namely black (northwest), blue (northeast), red (southeast) and white (southwest), symbolizing the four seasons. You need a physical examination before the game. Those over 20 years old should be above1.75m in height and above 75kg in weight. People under the age of 20 should be more than 1.70 meters tall and weigh more than 70 kilograms.

Athletes should comb their hair in a bun (athletes under 3 paragraphs don't do it), fasten their belts and crotch (athletes are naked and only wear wide belts and crotch), and take "power water" from buckets specially placed on the east and west sides of the table to rinse their mouths and moisten their throats, which means that water can increase strength, so it is called "power water". Then use "power paper" to wipe the filth on the body, symbolizing the stain on the soul. Grab some salt and sprinkle it on the playground, so that the site is clean and the skin is not easy to be infected, and sacrifice to heaven and earth to pray for peace.

The referee drummed the incense stick and called on sumo wrestlers to play in the game. After that, the two sides walked onto the stage, 60 cm apart, and stood opposite each other, ready to lift their legs, step on their feet, rub their hands and clap their hands. Then touch the ground with both hands, adjust your breath and get ready to enter the game.
