It's both exciting and surreal to share that I've been selected to proudly represent Australia on the grand stage of the inaugural FIH Hockey5s World Cup in Muscat, Oman, set to take place 24th-27th January 2024. the honor of wearing green and gold, and competing against the world's finest, is a dream come true.

The Journey, however, is not one that I can not embark upon alone. I've always quietly taken on challenges myself, but I've come to realise that even the strongest athletes have a team behind them. That's why I'm reaching out to you, with a heart full of pride and a touch of hesitation, to ask for your support.

The entire event is athlete self-funded. Every member of our dedicated team is committed to making this opportunity a reality, regardless of the financial challenges it presents. Your belief in my journey will mean more than words can express. Your generous contribution (no matter how large or small) will pave the way for my flights, accommodation, training camps, and uniforms, and ensure I have the resources I need to perform at my very best.

I want you to know that this isn't just about a donation - it's about creating a legacy and shaping a story that we can all be a part of.

Please consider donating today and becoming part of this incredible journey - and let's make history together.

With much gratitude,
