SANIX Rugby Festival

The SANIX tournament is an international schools rugby tournament that is held in the Fukuoka prefecture area of Japan annually.

The tournament is considered to be the premier international schools festival. The tournament is generally held during the golden week holidays in Japan which are from the 29th of April to the 6th of May. The Japan Rugby Football Union hosts the event and it is supported by various local bodies specifically the SANIX sports foundation whose then president Mr. Munemasa founded the tournament in the year 2000.

The SANIX sports foundation to this day provides half the costs for overseas teams to participate in the tournament.
