Webb Ellis Cup
• The Webb Ellis Cup is the trophy awarded to the winner of the Rugby World Cup, the premier competition in men's international rugby union. The Cup is named after William Webb Ellis, who is often credited as the inventor of rugby football. The trophy is silver gilt and has been presented to the winner of the Rugby World Cup since the first competition in 1987. It has been held three times by New Zealand (1987, 2011 & 2015), twice by Australia (1991 & 1999) and South Africa (1995 & 2007), and once by England in 2003.
• The trophy was chosen in 1987 as an appropriate cup for use in the competition, and was created in 1906 by Garrard's Crown Jewellers.

KIMONO
Worn by the ceremony's medal carrier.
The flamboyance, vivid colors, and artistry of antique kimonos were once a source of national pride for Japan, and also point to the influence of Noh Theater. Kimonos developed as a logical way to stay cool and comfortable in the humid climate, and they worked for kneeling on wood floors. The long, draping sleeves of furisode and fine, richly decorated silks became symbols of leisure and wealth for aristocrats. The straight-line cutting method created what is now the style of kimono, which is more comfortable and practical to wear. Makers of the kimono cut the fabric into straight lines, sewing the pieces together without the need of the wearer’s body measurements. It also enabled people to wear them in layers during cold seasons. Attire for men and women became more distinguished and clothing for those who served in courts was also developed.
The event mark is embroidered in this ceremony.

Medals
Designed by famed Japanese master craftsman and national living treasure, Minori Yoshita, the medals encapsulate Japan’s seamless blend of profound respect for tradition, coupled with its deep spirit of cutting-edge, technical innovation.
Rugby World Cup 2019 Organising Committee CEO Akira Shimazu said: “These stunning medals capture the most iconic symbols of Japan - our beloved cherry blossoms, the ubiquitous torii gate and the rising sun atop Mount Fuji - and combine them with the Webb Ellis Cup and the Rugby World Cup 2019 logo. They signify the bonds of friendship and respect that bind the world of rugby.”Please see the official website for details.

Hand-held Fireworks
• Toyohashi is the birthplace of hand-held fireworks
Hand-held fireworks, which are said to have originated from Toyohashi, consist of a joint of mosobamboo approximately 10 cm in diameter and 80 cm in length. A piece of rope is fastened to the bamboo.
Iron powder is added to black powder in which charcoal is mixed with saltpeter and sulfur. These fireworks, which erupt around 1.8 kg to 3 kg, are unique to the Higashi Mikawa region. A person lighting one of these fireworks firmly holds the tube next to his or her side while a magnificent column of flames erupts from it.
Finally, a flame called “hane” creates a large boom while erupting. The fireworks are used in numerous festivals in Toyohashi, as offerings in prayers for bumper crops, good health, prosperity, and long-lasting good luck in battles.
Also, it is tradition for each person who launches one of these hand-held fireworks to completely make one by him/herself, from cutting the bamboo, to making the gunpowder, and finally cramming it into the bamboo. The model of hand-held fireworks is called “noroshi,” which is a signal fire of information. In old documents of Yoshida Shrine in Toyohashi, it is recorded that these fireworks were used in festivals. For example, “These fireworks began as fireworks in a Yoshida Shrine festival” and “In Eiroku 3 (1560), these fireworks started to be used since the age of Yoshida Castle”.
Compared to the rest of Japan, the history of these fireworks in this area is rather old, and it is said that the origin of these fireworks is Yoshida shrine. Fireworks, which started to appear during the Age of Civil Wars, are said to have spread to the common people from the Genroku Period of the Endo Period. It is said that what caused these fireworks to start to thrive in this region is connected to the development of fireworks resulting from Tokugawa Ieyasu asking Mikawa people to produce gunpowder.
