The Japan Wrestling Federation has announced a policy to decide on the disposition of related parties and the return of donations within this month over the problem of receiving inappropriate donations from coaches' compensation in the past.

The Japan Wrestling Federation suspected that the coach had donated a part of the remuneration and subsidies paid by the government and the JOC = Japanese Olympic Committee to the association and used it for dinner during overseas expeditions. I was asked to investigate and submitted a report last month.



On the 18th, the Wrestling Federation held an extraordinary board meeting online to explain the contents of the report.



After the meeting, the Wrestling Federation revealed that as a result of the investigation, it was confirmed that 16 coaches had donated about 14 million yen by 2011.



On top of that, although private diversion was not confirmed, some coaches were effectively forced to donate, the usage and income and expenditure were not properly reported, and what is the original use of the subsidy? The problem was that they were using it differently.



In addition, Yuji Takada, managing director who was in charge of strengthening players at that time, said, "I would like to apologize for the fact that I caused this problem. I will leave the advancement and retreat to the board of directors." No conclusion was reached at the day's meeting.



The Wrestling Federation plans to hold an extraordinary board meeting again this month to decide on the disposition of related parties and the return of donations.
