Looks like croquet, that traditional game of the English upper class, although a quick review of the wikipedia entry for Croquet reveals that the Japanese have a similar game called Gateball, so perhaps it is that?
Tokyo (東京, Tōkyō?), officially Tokyo Metropolis (東京都, Tōkyō-to?),[1] is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan and located on the eastern side of the main island Honshū. The twenty-three special wards of Tokyo, each governed as a city, cover the area that was once the city of Tokyo in the eastern part of the prefecture, and total over 8 million people. The population of the prefecture exceeds 12 million.
Tokyo is the seat of the Japanese government and the Imperial Palace, and the home of the Japanese Imperial Family.

It's gateball. You see the old timers playing it all over Japan.
