Tokyo 6 Universities
Tokyo six universities (東京六大学,Tōkyō roku daigaku) are six universities in Tokyo: Tokyo, Waseda, Keio, Hosei , Meiji, and Rikkyo (St Paul's) universities that compete amongst themselves in a baseball tournament ("Tokyo six universities' baseball", 東京六大学野球 Tōkyō roku daigaku yakyū). Cheerleaders (応援団,Ōendan) work themselves and sometimes others in the audience into a frenzy.
The match (早慶戦,Sōkeisen) between Keio and Waseda attracts particular attention, and is greatly enjoyed by the students, not least because it causes classes at both universities to be canceled.
