Hi, my name is Jazzie. I am a young aspiring athlete, shooting for the stars to fulfill my basketball dreams and head to Rockhampton in July for the State Championships and I need your help to get there! (Bonus alert: did you know that supporting young athletes is tax deductable!!! Hint hint).
I kind of fell into basketball 2 years ago when my friend Poppy was on the hunt for an extra person for their team, the Tamborine Mountain Wolves. From my first training session, I couldn't stop smiling. Basketball is my happy place. It has taught me so much, not only skill wise, but also about teamwork, leadership, learning to take direction and criticism and work hard to improve my game. I feel really privileged to have had mentorship from my Coach Jessica Fern, who has always believed in me and pushed me onto greater things. With my fierce determination and dedication, I hope to win a place on the Opals and play for Australia one day and make for for a name for Women's basketball.
Two years on, winning a grand final and winning silver in another, I have worked towards a higher level of basketball and was hand picked to represent the North Gold Coast Seahawks on their Division 1 Girls under 14's team. This comes with a lot of traveling as games are held all over South East Queensland, each weekend. At the end of the season, our team will be heading to Rockhampton for the State Championships - which is where I need your help!

Thanks and keep shooting for the stars (I'm on my wayyyyyy!!!)
