I have been given a fantastic opportunity by being selected to represent Australia in Japan. With this opportunity comes huge expense. I work part time but also attend full time Uni, so my hours are minimal between that and training as much as I can and helping to shape the junior athletes with coaching. I have been an athlete in this sport since I was 6 so to be given the chance to compete in a Competition I have dreamt about for most of my life really is a dream come true. To be able to fulfil a goal I set myself to one day be at the Suzuki World Cup as an Australian Athlete competing in a sport I am passionate about is something I wasn't sure could become a reality. Through hard work and dedication I have been able to earn my place on the squad. Raising funds would help with the cost of getting over there and to also help me continue training.
