The J.League’s board of directors has confirmed the league’s support for MARCH, a short-form documentary currently in production.

The film’s focus is Fukushima-based student marching band Seeds+, who have continued their activities in the wake of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami which devastated the region. 

The group were invited to perform at the home game of MEIJI YASUDA J2 League club Ehime FC in 2015.

As Japan prepares to observe the fifth anniversary of the disaster, the J.League remains committed to the support and revival of the affected region.
