Nakamura stable

Nakamura stable (中村部屋, Nakamura-beya) was a stable of sumo wrestlers, one of the Takasago group of stables. It was established in its modern incarnation in May 1986 by Fujizakura of the Takasago stable. The stable's first sekitori was Saigo in November 1995. It did not produce any makuuchi wrestlers. As of December 2007 it had 14 sumo wrestlers. The stable had a policy of not recruiting foreigners or former collegiate competitors. Instead, the stablemaster only accepted new recruits out of middle school. However, he did allow his wrestlers to take high school correspondence courses over the internet.[1]

The former Fujizakura reached the mandatory retirement age of 65 early in 2013 and as there was no successor available, the stable closed in December 2012 with five of its remaining wrestlers, including former jūryō Hishofuji, transferring to Azumazeki stable, and the other two retiring.[2]
