Sumo Wrestlers

Sumo Wrestling is very popular in Japan. Two people wrestle in a ring, but, because it is a very ancient sport, there is lots of ceremony and ritual as well.

Professional Sumo wrestlers are often very large! They grow their hair long and wear it on top of their heads in a top-knot, and they wear traditional clothes even when they are not wrestling.
