Just letting the community know that Jason stands at 6ft, 9 has been scouted by Stevie Cozens NCAA acredited for NZ to play basketball in America. He lived in the Southland area attending Aparima College. He played in the Southland National twice. His shoe size are 15. His mother Sammy Columbus posted his shoes and selling them on NZ Basketball. She requested if any body had size 15 for sale. A Franklin Bulls basketball player gifted him 2 pairs of shoes which he now plays in. This is where it started, where Stevie Cozen contacted us about having Jason in a career for 1st Division.
Since than Jason has been living in Botany and going to Sacred Hearts College. He has been selected to play in the Hoop Nation in Tauranga for Mana Moana. He played in the South Auckland Tournament and played in the Winning Team Mavs, also winning Final MVP. This weekend he will be playing in the Polynesian tournament in the U17 Premier A team. Next week he will be doing 5 to 6 sessions with a scrimmage team for the NZ U15 team. Next year He will be going to Melbourne in February for training Camp. This is something we believe will hopefully one day become an NBA baller. Please help us make his magic come true and Give a little. Godbless.

Jason Columbus 12 November 2024
Jason has been given amazing opportunities to reach some of his goals. He was invited to the Tuatara training as a one of many potential athletes to attend after school or weekend training with the most elite players. He was also invited to attend a Franklin Bulls prospectus training. Jason has been potentially seemed after by coaches of other teams in the U18 to play in their competitions. We are a family that will help him strive his very best. He is backed by his mother 100% and myself. I have now moved to Auckland to support his career in Basketball while working as a relief teacher in and around South Auckland. Jason attends Sacred Heart College and is enjoying his new surroundings. It has been hard 5month making sure Jason attends school and trains of all sorts. U16 NZ scrimmage training y sessions. U18 Tuatara young prospectus training. His school traing and also his study leave at this moment. It's been a trying time especially getting him to and from school due to transportation. Now he is eventually moving closer to his school and getting his transportation sorted. Thanks to his Mum Sammy Columbus and everyone else who supports his needs. Please help him and give a little by donating or sharing his page click the links. Your support will help him reach his Dreams to become an NBA player one day.
