We are incredibly proud to share that Shayla-Ann, an 11-year-old all-round athlete from Tasmania, has been selected to represent Australia in the Under 12 Girls Futsal team at the Jiangmen Futsal Festival in China, July 2026!

Shayla-Ann is a passionate and determined young sportswoman. From gymnastics to futsal, youth boxing to children’s boot camp, she gives her all to every challenge she takes on. Her dedication, discipline, and love for sport have now opened an amazing door — the chance to wear the green and gold and represent her country on the international stage.

We’re now reaching out to our community, friends, and family to explore ways to help fund this incredible journey.

👉 The total cost of this trip is $5,400, which includes international flights, accommodation, and team expenses. Additional costs such as domestic travel to an international airport, passports, and meals also add up quickly.

As Shayla-Ann is too young to travel alone, we’ll also need to cover similar costs for a guardian to accompany her, making your support even more meaningful for our family.

Any contribution, no matter how big or small, will go directly toward making this dream a reality.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Shayla-Ann to follow her dreams, grow as an athlete, and represent Australia with pride. Let’s rally behind her and show just how far community spirit can go.

Thank you so much for your support. Every donation or share makes a real difference. 💚💛
