History[]

Kimigahama stable was established in May 1972 by former sekiwake Tsurugamine of Izutsu stable. However, he really coveted the stock of his old Izutsu stable, but was unable to come to agreement with the widow of his old boss, who had died in March 1972. In 1977 he was able to purchase the stock from former yokozuna Kitanofuji and became head coach of the renamed Izutsu stable.

The stable had one foreigner, Brazilian Pasquale Bosche, who took the shikona of Hakusan. Hakusan transferred to Izutsu stable along with the rest of Kimigahama stable.
