Sakaigawa stable is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Dewanoumi group of stables. It was established in its modern form on 25 May 1998 by former komusubi Ryogoku, who branched off from Dewanoumi stable. It was originally called Nakadachi stable, but when Sakaigawa Oyakata (the 50th Yokozuna Sadanoyama) reached the Japan Sumo Association's mandatory retirement age in February 2003, he passed on the Sakaigawa name, and the stable was renamed. As of September 2010, it had twenty wrestlers, seven of whom were ranked in the second highest juryo division - the most in one tournament since Kasugano stable in 1985.
