The Emperor's Cup is an open tournament of the greatest soccer in
Japan, and it is located in a line with J. League and the J. League Yamazaki-Nabisco
cup, and let it be the domestic 3 major titles of Japan. The Emperor’s cup was
started in 1921. The right of participation of AFC Champions League (ACL) and
FUJI XEROX SUPERCUP of a following season are granted to the championship club
of this convention.
It is in 1948 that the Emperor's Cup received for the first time.
Emperor Showa watched the "East-West game" on April 3 in 1947, and
JFA received the Emperor's Cup from the Imperial Household Agency in following
July, 1948. At first, although the Emperor's Cup was presented to the winner of
the East-West game, it came to be presented to the victorious team of the all
Japan championship from the 31st time, and also changed the convention name to
"Emperor's Cup all Japan soccer championship" which is the present
convention name.
After inauguration of Japan Soccer League (JSL) in 1965, although
the right of participation of Emperor’s Cup was given each 4 teams of higher
ranks of JSL and all Japan college soccer tournament, there is also a rise of
the voice which asks for an open cup like FA cup of England used as the model
of the convention, and it became open from the 52nd time. After the J. League
inauguration, it becomes the only convention which can fight a pro team and an
amateur team, and also a second kind registration team (high school student
age) can also participate from the 76th time. Although the 83rd time was mainly
held from December on the New Year's Day, it has been improved so that more
games can be managed also in Hokkaido, northeast, and north Shin-etsu area
which were hard to hold in a cold district by carrying out large expansion of
the convention schedule from the end of September from the 84th time.
The "NHK cup
New-Year's-Day soccer" which invited the each champion team of a member of
society and student is held in 1968 on the New Year's Day. But because the
Emperor's Cup final came to be held on New-Year's-Day from the 48th time of the
degree next year, the NHK cup soccer was abolished only by this 1 time. As
these vestiges, the NHK cup is awarded to a victorious team with the Emperor's
Cup now.
