Invited by the CPAFFC, a 98-member Japanese high school student delegation led by Yuichi Sakuraoka, President of the Fukushima Football Association, made a cultural and sports study tour of Weifang, Shandong Province from December 9 to 11, 2011.
It was ice-cold on the morning of December 10, with the previous day’s snow still lying on the ground. However, this did not deter the players involved in two friendly matches being staged on the fields of Shandong Luneng Taishan Football School. The students of Japanese high schools and the Luneng school formed four teams composed of five Japanese and Chinese players each, along with either a Japanese or a Chinese goalkeeper. When interviewed by a reporter, Kyohei Ishikawa, a student from the Miyagi Prefectural Ishinomaki Nishi High School, said: “Through the matches, we have learned new skills. We don’t understand each other’s language, but football has no national boundaries. We cooperated very well with gestures and facial expressions. I will always remember these matches”. Li Xiang, a Luneng student, who had received football training since early childhood, told the reporter he and his fellow students were keen to join a professional football team in the future through hard training, while the Japanese seemed to be playing purely for pleasure. “This idea of enjoying sports will have important influence in my future life. ”
On December 10 and 11, the Japanese students and students of the Weifang No. 1 Middle School carried out cultural exchange activities as well as holding a get-together. The Chinese students put on a rich and colorful cultural show, while the Japanese performed the traditional dance—Iwashiro dance, in which the Chinese later joined in a warm and lively atmosphere.
Hayato Yoshida, from the Fukushima Prefectural Taira Technical High School, and Dai Yueyu, from the Weifang No.1 Middle School, became good friends. Dai Yueyu played the cucurbit flute for Yoshida and, in a mixture of English and broken Japanese, explained how the flute originated from Yunnan. To let the Japanese student know more about the Weifang kite culture, Dai’s parents took him to visit the Weifang World Kite Museum and the Yang- jiabu Folk Art Grand View Garden and taught him how to fly a kite. Dai’s grandma taught the Japanese youth how to make jiaozi—Chinese dumpling. At parting, the two pals hugged and promised to become lifetime friend. A total of 80 Japanese students lived with families of the students of the Weifang No. 1 Middle School, experiencing Chinese family culture. These activities have left fond memories on them and boosted mutual understanding and friendship between the youth of the two countries. If this event can be regarded as a seed, it will surely take root and become a towering tree of China-Japan friendship.
