I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to represent Australia at the U16 World Championships in Zagreb this year. This is something I’ve worked towards for years, and being selected means so much to me. Before the competition, I’ll also be travelling to Trebinje, Bosnia for the pre worlds preparation, along with attending two training camps at the AIS and a pre-tour camp in Sydney before europe. These experiences are designed to help me perform at my best on the world stage, but they come with significant costs. The total for the tour is over $14,000, covering travel, accommodation, training camps, competition expenses and uniform.

I care deeply about this journey because it represents not just my personal goals, but the chance to grow, challenge myself, and represent my community and country with pride on the world stage. Every training session, early morning swim set, and sacrifice has led to this moment. To make this happen, I’m working hard both on and off the field—training consistently and seeking support through fundraising. Any contribution, big or small, would mean a lot and go directly toward helping me take part in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Any donation is Tax Deductible at the end of the current financial year (30th June).

Thank you for supporting me and being part of this journey.
