I am incredibly proud to share that my son Mana has been selected to represent Australia in the 2025 U18 National American Football Tackle Team.

This July he will head to the Gold Coast for a week long national training camp, culminating in a game against the New Zealand U18 team on Saturday 12 July.

Mana is in his second year playing defensive tackle for the Sydney Uni Cubs Colts club team and has worked incredibly hard to earn this spot on the team through dedication and passion for the sport.

It is a huge honour for him to wear the green and gold and represent his country on the field.

The total cost for his participation is $3,120 which covers essential fees including official program costs, team uniform and travel expenses.

Every contribution, regardless of the size, will go directly toward supporting Mana.

If you are able to donate or share this page, I would be truly grateful.

Thank you for being part of Team Mana Rameka and for helping make this incredible opportunity a reality!
