I am one of 11 selected to represent Australia this June in Los Angeles, California for the U15 Flag football Junior International Cup 2026.

This is a huge honour for myself my family, my school Grange P-12 and state to represent Australia on a world stage.

My Dad encouraged me to give football a go as a way to bond and make memories with my older brother. When people said I wasn’t good enough my Dad kept encouraging me and believing in me.

Football has become my passion it’s given me confidence, community and belonging.

My goal is to play in the 2032 Brisbane Olympics and this opportunity is giving me the best possible start, thank you for being witness to my journey.
