The 2022 All Japan University Football Championship (第71å 堨æÂ¥æ¬大å¦ãµãÂÂã«ã¼é¸æÂÂ権大ä¼Â; All Japan 71st University Football Championship) was the 71st edition of the referred annually contested cup for universities across Japan. As usual, the tournament was contested by 24 universities on a knockout-stage format. Komazawa were the current champions, winning 3âÂÂ2 past Hannan on the 2021 championship. However, as they didn't qualify for this edition, the university was unable to defend their title. Toin Yokohama took advantage of it, winning the championship by a 3âÂÂ2 win after a last-minute goal against the Niigata University of Health and Welfare. This win was their first in this tournament.
