Introduction

The Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC; 日本オリンピック委員会, Nippon Orinpikku Iinkai) was formed in July of 1911 as the Japan Amateur Sports Association. The organization became indepdent of the JASA in August 1989 and, as of this writing, hosted three Olympic games (Tokyo Summer 1964, Sapporo Winter 1972 and Nagano Winter 1998) and are organizing a fourth one for the summer of 2020 in Tokyo.

Description

The flag is a logo on white. The logo, the "first emblem" according to the JOC is the national flag placed above the Olympic rings. While the adoption of the flag is not certain, the emblem was adopted in 1962 and was designed by Tatsuo Wakino of the Japan Skating Federation Council (nee Saito) at the request of Prince Tsuneyoshi Takeda (then a committee member of the JOC).

Ceremonial flag

image by Zachary Harden, 26 June 2018

Before each Olympic competition, a special flag is presented from the Japanese Olympic Committee to the main flag bearer of the opening ceremony. This banner is a dressed-up national flag with an imperial scroll on the hoist side of the flag. The gold on purple text reads "Granted by His Imperial Highness Prince Chichibu" (秩父宮殿下御下賜). This flag is not used in any ceremonies outside of Japan and stays in the country. At the end of the Olympic competition, the flag bearer hands the flag back to the JOC to signify the dissolution of the Olympic team.

The Olympians Association of Japan (日本オリンピアンズ協会, Nippon Orinpianzu Kyōkai, OAJ) was founded in September 2003 to organize the current and former Olympic athletes from Japan to promote sport but also the Olympic Movement. It is also a member of the World Olympians Association. The emblem of the OAJ is the Olympic rings on top of a lit torch; on this torch is the Japanese flag. This emblem, whose adoption date is unknown, is used on a white field for the OAJ flag. This flag can be seen here.

For the Japan Olympic Academy (日本オリンピック・アカデミー, Nippon orinpikku akademī), it was founded in 1970 and it develops future Japanese athletes to get them ready for Olympic competition. The emblem, whose creation date is unknown, is the monogram "JOA" in gold placed on top of the Olympic Rings. There are two versions of the JOA flag, mostly to correspond with the changes of the Olympic Rings (pre-2011 with the interlocking rings with an outline and the current pattern with the interlocking rings with no outlines).

TEAM JAPAN (2022)

image by Zachary Harden, 10 February 2022

On October 27, 2021, the JOC held a "TEAM JAPAN" brand presentation in Tokyo, and announced an emblem in the shape of the acronyms T and J. The emblem is modeled with a gold T that expresses the light that shines the future and a red J that expresses the passion of the athlete, and the letters "TEAM JAPAN" and the Olympic symbol are drawn in the original font. The emblem will also be used for uniforms worn by athletes at the Beijing Winter Olympics in February 2022. Hanae Ito, a former representative of Japan for swimming and a JOC athlete committee member who was involved in the production of the emblem for about a year, said, "I made it through repeated discussions. I think the players will be proud to fight with the Hinomaru." Graphical elements and taglines were co-produced with Interbrand Japan. At the 2022 Winter Games, the team uses a white flag with this emblem placed in the center.
