    Description

    The All Japan Judo Federation (全日本柔道連盟, Zen Nihon Jūdō Renmei) is the national governing body of judo in Japan, founded on 6 May 1949 with Risei Kano, head of the Kodokan, as its first president. It joined the International Judo Federation in 1952, and its presidents also led the Kodokan, reflecting the close institutional link between the two bodies.

      The federation's own history page and English Wikipedia, an independent source, both directly state AJJF joined the International Judo Federation in December 1952; the exact day differs by one (9th per AJJF, 10th per Wikipedia).
      The evidence establishes the claim: it is sufficient and consistent, and any conflicting evidence is resolved.
