The SUMO HHH ranking chart

Level Description:

1. JONOKUCHI: The starting point for the young SUMOTORI. This rank will be held until completing the sixth trail when a Sumo HHH name is given. Previously named harriers may choose to keep their previous name, or have the pack give a new Sumo HHH name. Upon being named by the Sumo HHH, a patch is bestowed upon future Jonidan. 

2. JONIDAN: Named Sumo Harriers with less than 20 hash runs. Advancement from Jonokushi is automatic upon attending the seventh hash. At 10 and 20 runs, patches are awarded to the experienced Jonidan. 

3. SANDANME: Sumo Harriers with 21-50 hash runs with the Sumo HHH. Run patches are awarded at 30, 40, and 50 Sumo HHH runs. Sandanme harriers need only run one more Sumo Hash trail for advancement to Juryo.

4. JURYO: Sumo Harriers with 51-100 hash runs with the Sumo HHH. Additional run patches are awarded on every 10 run.

5. MAKUUCHI: Mismangement (temporary), to include the Hash Cash, HonSec, Haberdasher, and Beer Meister. This rank will be permanently bestowed on all Super Hares (those that have laid at least 10 trails).

6. MAEGASHIRA: All Sumo harriers with over 100 Sumo Hash runs will become permanent Maegashiras.

7. SANYAKU: The current Grand Master. Grand Master will be held for 1 Year until a new GM is voted on by the pack.

8. SEKIWAKE: Reserved for those Sumo Harriers that have made significant contributions to the Sumo HHH, holding many mismangement positions, helping arrange and/or haring many trails.

9. OZEKI: Once a GM has completed a full and successful term as GM, the Ozekis will vote for promotion of outgoing GM to the new rank of Ozeki. Outgoing GMs must have made significant contributions to the hash as either a Hare or other mismangement duties. GMs that do not complete a full year may be voted for permanent Sanyaku ranking by the existing Ozekis.

10. YOKOZUNA: To be determined.
