Sports Day (Athletics Day?) is to commemorate the Tokyo Olympics. Aside from it being a national holiday, there are no real national events. On the prefectural and municipal level, however, many places schedule sporting events for this day. I know of one small kendo tournament that is scheduled for this day every year, but I don't know of any big ones. Hope this answers your question
