ABOUT Hayley Finlayson

Mundingburra, QLD

My vision is to create more pathways for women and others in the sport of boxing in North Queensland, leaving behind a legacy that will last a lifetime.

To achieve this, I am pursuing my dream of becoming a World Title Belt holder.

Every fight, every training camp, and every opportunity to test myself against the best brings me closer to that goal.


To keep progressing, I must compete against top-level athletes both in Australia and internationally. This requires funding to cover travel, sparring opportunities, training camps, strength and conditioning, nutrition, mindset coaching, recovery, and access to the resources needed to perform at the highest level.


This journey isn’t just about me. It’s about showing what’s possible for women in sport, inspiring the next generation, and carving out opportunities for young boxers in North Queensland. Every step I take in the ring is also about paving the way for others.


Your contribution doesn’t just help me prepare and compete—it creates ripple effects. With your support, I can dedicate myself more fully to training and competing, while also building programs and pathways for others in my community. Without it, opportunities become limited, and the chance to elevate women’s boxing in our region slows down. With it, together we create lasting change.


By donating, you directly fuel this journey. For example:

  • $50 helps with essential training gear
  • $150 supports nutrition and recovery costs
  • $500 assists with travel for sparring and competition
  • $1,000+ contributes toward major training camps and international opportunities

Outside of boxing, I am a lover of movement, nature (especially the ocean), arts and crafts, sustainability, and most importantly, being present with my young daughter. Balancing life as a full-time athlete, solo parent, and massage therapist has taught me resilience, discipline, and adaptability.


Your generosity allows me to keep striving, not only for personal milestones but for a greater purpose—building pathways, inspiring the next generation, and leaving a legacy in sport and community.

Together, we can make this vision a reality!
