Former Seiritsu International Student Jason Davidson says thank you to Seiritsu!
Former Seiritsu Football club athlete Jason Davidson is one of the many success stories of Seiritsu school. Since being scouted and turning pro in January 2009, Jason's career has taken him back to his native Australia, Portugal, Holland and now England, where he plays in the world-famous English Premier League for West Bromwich Albion. Above this, he is also a regular in the Australian National football team, and featured in this year's World Cup in Brazil.
As part of the preparations for the Asia cup in January 2015, Australia and Japan arranged an exhibition match for November 18th; Jason was in the Australian squad, and back in Japan for the first time since leaving Seiritsu all those years ago. Because of this, Jason has taken the opportunity to come and say thank you to Seiritsu and its staff.
Jason's Journey was also being recorded for the Australian media; so on Friday November 14 and the following day the International Department met the filming crew to help orchestrate the interviews with The heads of school and Jason's old teachers.
Jason's old home stay father, Kamal Singh, provided excellent interpretation for the filming.
Jason himself will be coming to Seiritsu after his game against Japan on Tuesday night. Good luck!
