My story
Hi, my name is Kai Seedeen, I am a 15-year-old basketball player for Chelsea Gulls in the Victorian Junior Basketball League.
Seven years ago, I was diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis. This disease not only kept me from playing the sport I love but also made something as simple as walking a struggle. But I refused to let it hold me back from my dream of playing at the highest level. I train every single day and play as many games as possible.
With the support of my doctors, family, and friends, I’ve learned how to manage my condition, even when it’s tough. For the past four seasons, I’ve proudly played Rep Basketball at a high level, pushing through challenges.
Recently, I reached the most exciting step in my journey - I’ve been offered an amazing opportunity to represent Australia in the upcoming Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) college recruitment tournament in America with AUSA Hoops Basketball in 2025 which runs for 2 weeks. As this tournament brings together top players from all over Australia, it gives me the chance to test my skills against the best of the best in the competitive world of U.S. college basketball.
Along with AUSA, I’m honoured to be part of fantastic basketball communities like Aspendale Gardens Giants, Edithvale Pelicans, and Kingston Basketball. For me, this tour is about more than just basketball - it’s about growth and pushing beyond what I thought I could achieve. I also see it as an opportunity to inspire other young athletes, especially those with a Sri Lankan background, to believe that with hard work, they can reach their dreams.
I would be forever grateful if you could support me on this journey by donating and being a part of my AUSA Hoops Tour experience. It would mean everything to me, and I hope to inspire others who are facing their own challenges along the way.
Current costs are $14,000
I’m deeply thankful for any contribution you can make. Thank you!
