Naruto stable

Naruto stable operates as a professional sumo wrestling facility where athletes live, train, and develop their skills under the guidance of former champion Kotoōshū Katsunori.

The stable inaugurated on April 1, 2017, when former ōzeki Kotoōshū Katsunori separated from Sadogatake stable to establish his own training facility.

The training center incorporates both Japanese sumo traditions and European influences, reflecting the Bulgarian heritage of its founder while maintaining strict adherence to sumo protocols.

The facility maintains a roster of 17 wrestlers who participate in tournaments throughout the year, with many of their names beginning with the character 欧 to represent European connections.

This establishment marked a milestone in sumo history as the first stable managed by a European-born wrestler, following Kotoōshū's naturalization as a Japanese citizen.
