The 2022 All Japan University Football Championship (第71回 全日本大学サッカー選手権大会; All Japan 71st University Football Championship) was the 71st edition of the referred annually contested cup for universities across Japan. As usual, the tournament was contested by 24 universities on a knockout-stage format.[1] Komazawa were the current champions, winning 3–2 past Hannan on the 2021 championship. However, as they didn't qualify for this edition, the university was unable to defend their title.[2] Toin Yokohama took advantage of it, winning the championship by a 3–2 win after a last-minute goal against the Niigata University of Health and Welfare. This win was their first in this tournament.
