Hello friends, family & footy fans! 🏈

I’m beyond excited (and just a little emotional) to share some amazing news—my 15-year-old son EJ has been selected to represent Australia in the U16 Outback American Football team at the Festival of Football on the Gold Coast this July!

EJ is following in the cleats of his big brother Chaz, who proudly wore the green and gold at the World Championships last year and is soon heading to Canada to continue his football journey. Now, it's EJ's turn to shine—and if you've met him, you’ll know he’s ready to hit hard, dream big, and absolutely own that field.

EJ’s been playing American Football for just 3 years, but his dedication is next level. Whether he's suiting up for the UniSA Eagles in South Australia or the Southern Vikings in Victoria, he's got grit, drive, and a serious love for the game. Football isn't just a sport for EJ—it's where he’s found his confidence, his second family, and his future.

But here’s the thing—this kind of opportunity comes with a hefty price tag. Between travel, gear, accommodation, and competition fees, we’re looking to raise $4,000 to help get EJ to the Gold Coast and into action.

As a single mum, I couldn't be prouder of EJ—but I’ll admit, the financial side is a tough tackle. That’s why we’re reaching out to our incredible community for support. Whether you can chip in a little or a lot, every donation gets us one step closer to making EJ’s dream a reality. ❤️

Let’s help this talented young man take the field for Australia with pride—and maybe even lay a few good hits while he’s at it!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your support.

With love & gratitude,

Kylee & EJ x
