All Japan Judo Federation

Founded in 1949, the All Japan Judo Federation(Japanese: 全日本柔道連盟) is the largest judo association in Japan, and the official representative for judo in the Japanese Olympic Committee.
The Federation has several subsidiary organizations, including the All Japan University Judo Federation, the All Japan Business Group Judo Federation, the All Japan High School Athletic Federation, and the Nippon Junior High School Physical Culture Association's Judo Competition Division.
In December 2011, Jiro Fukuda made unwanted sexual advances towards a female athlete, forcibly hugging and kissing her. Fukuda announced his intention to resign when the incident came to light in 2013.
In March 2013, Hiroyuki Tanaka, of the All Japan Judo Federation, and several other directors illegally received a grant from the Japan Sports Promotion Center (JSC). Immediately, an independent commission was established to investigate.
On April 26, 2013, an interim report was issued by the secretariat of the governing body on the case of illegally using a part of the subsidy paid to the leader of the Japan Sports Promotion Center as reinforcement reserve for food and drinking expenses. There was certifiable evidence of involvement by a foreign consortium due to the fact that a reservation payment e-mail was sent to recipients, a dunning e-mail was made if payment was delayed, there was a deposit bankbook of retained deposits in the secretariat's safe, etc. The misdirected money was also inappropriate in light of social norms, and violated the Pure Practice Law. It was pointed out that the organization didn't act in the spirit of legislation governing public subsidies. The misdirected funds were managed by Kamiro Yoshimura, who succeeded Uemura as strengthening committee chairman, and the balance reached about 23.5 million yen. The management of books and receipts was in bad faith, and the Japan Sports Promotion Center and Nagoya Sports Promotion Center bore some responsibility. The lack of proper management by the IOC was also pointed out.
On June 21, 2013, the independent commission published a final report that was roughly the same as the interim report, but added that, at the end 2007, 27 leaders were involved in fraudulent receipt of a 36.2 million yen subsidy. It was certified that the funds used for illegitimate purposes reached 33.45 million yen.
In addition, the final report said that those who "have the heaviest responsibility" were fully involved in these issues, including Yoshimura Waro, who was the strengthening committee chairperson at the time. Also included are the former reinforcement chairman, who did not have the judgment to rectify the situation, and Haruki Uemura, chairman of the Board of Contractors. Upon receiving this, Uemura announced his retirement as chairman of the board as of 2014.
On July 23, 2013, due to successive scandals, the Cabinet Office received a recommendation for measures for improvement, based on the Public Interest Certification Act, which is the first since the adoption of the new corporation system in 2008.
In recent years, girls judo has become established as an official sports competition internationally, so we will continue to organize and consolidate the tournament organized. Integration of conventions that have been carried out by gender has also been done so far.
The All Japan Judo Federation is a member of the Asian umbrella organization Judo Union of Asia (JUA) as well as the World Association for International Judo Federation (IJF).
On the part of the Japanese Olympic Committee, the JOC is the only Judo Association authorized to send athletes to the Olympic Games.
