# 2024 All Japan Senior Football Championship

The 60th All Japan Senior Football Championship (Japanese: 第60回全国社会人サッカー選手権大会, Hepburn: Dai 60-kai zenkoku shakai hito sakkā senshuken taikai), officially known as the 2024 All Japan Adults Football Tournament, and commonly referred to as the 2024 Shakaijin Cup, was the 60th edition of the annually contested single-elimination tournament (or cup) for the best-ranked amateur clubs in Japan, non-league clubs (participating in Regional or Prefectural Leagues and not included in the nation-wide league competitions).
FC Kariya were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the semifinals by Japan Soccer College and finished in fourth place. Japan Soccer College became champions, beating FC Tokushima in the final, earning them their first title in the competition. They also became only the third team from Hokushin'etsu to do so, and the only one from Niigata Prefecture.

## Tournament guidelines

Every match in the tournament were played with 40-minute halves, instead of the usual 45, resulting in 80 minutes of action in total, excluding added time. If a match is tied at full time, it would go directly to a penalty shoot-out, without extra time. Up to five substitutions were allowed, with a maximum of three substitution breaks (excluding half-time), as per FIFA's recommendation.
The top three teams from the tournament qualified for the 2024 edition of the Japanese Regional Champions League, which serves as the play-off for the Japan Football League. However, the top three teams are not necessarily the semi-finalists; rather, they will be the best-ranked teams in the "Shakaijin" among those that have not won their respective Regional Leagues.
Regarding suspensions, players or officials could be suspended for an upcoming match if they: (1) receive yellow cards in two consecutive matches, or (2) are shown a red card. Accumulated yellow cards were reset after the quarter-finals.
