Weston College annouced that Jason Selormey, the lead practitioner for ADHD, was chosen for the challenge.
Jason said: “I felt really proud. I’ve been fortunate enough to compete at the international level since I was 17, and it is always very special for me.”
His passion for the sport and pride in representing his country remains as strong as ever, even after years of playing at the highest level.
The upcoming qualifiers will see Jason and his teammates start against some of the toughest competition in Europe.
They will play against Sweden in Carlstadt, followed by a home game against Germany in Coventry.
Reflecting on the challenge, Jason said: “Both are really top teams with professional leagues, so we have our work cut out for us, but we’ve prepared well.
“We’re excited to show what we can do on the international stage.
“Before I was first selected to the Under 19 programme, I had just lost my mother, so she never got to see me play internationally.
“Every time I get to play for GB, it feels that much more special. It’s my way of showing her that her youngest son is doing what he loves. “ Professionally, this experience also contributes valuable lessons.
“It gives me amazing insights into collaboration, personality management, and handling nerves. Whenever I have to deliver a big presentation at work, I always say it feels just like preparing for a big game.”
Jason’s role as a Lead Practitioner for ADHD also complements his involvement in sports.
“The two are closer than people think,” he explained. “Both roles require the ability to adapt to challenges and rely on a high level of emotional intelligence. My job is almost practice for what I do on game day, and vice versa.”
