The World Lightweight Rowing Association - AUS Branch is dedicated to promoting lightweight rowing excellence across Australia. Our women's eight crew is made up of talented lightweight athletes from around Australia, many of whom featured on this years podium for the Interstate Lightweight 4x event at the National Championships. To showcase the talent and depth of Australian lightweight rowing, despite the incoming changes to the Olympic programme, this crew is on a mission to win the Lightweight Women's Eight event at the renowned Head of the Charles Regatta in Boston, USA.

**The Event:**

The Head of the Charles Regatta is the world's largest two-day rowing event, attracting thousands of athletes and spectators from around the globe. Our crew will be competing against top international lightweight teams.

**Why We Need Your Support:**

Competing at such a prestigious event involves significant costs including travel expenses, accommodation, equipment hire, and entry fees. We rely on the generosity of our community and supporters to help cover these expenses and ensure our team can focus on training and competing at their best.

**How You Can Help:**

Your donation will directly support our lightweight women's eight crew in their journey to Boston. Whether big or small, every contribution makes a difference in helping us achieve our goal. This is the first year of the WLRA- AUS Branch's international campaign to support and advocate for lightweight rowing, and your donation will help to make it viable to continue annually - ensuring a continuing vibrant future for lightweight rowing.
