Hi, my name is Malcolm, I am 17 and an Acrobatic Gymnast currently competing as part of a mixed pair with my partner Adela. We are currently competing in the 12 - 18 international stream at a national level.

We have a goal to represent Australia at the world age games in 2026 in the 13 - 19 age group. To get there we need to qualify by competing in the NSW State Championships in February / March 2025 , and then the Australian Gymnastics Championships in May / June 2025 and also the National Club Carnival in September 2025.

​

I have been competing since I was 6 years old, and in the past 10 years I have won 8 x NSW State Championships and 2 x National Club Carnival Golds and was Australian Gymnastics Champion in 2023 in the Level 6 Mixed Pairs with my previous partner.

​

My Current partner Adela and I missed the NSW state championships in 2024 due to injury , but were able to deliver a display routine that qualified us for the 2024 Australian Gymnastics Championships. We came away from those Championships, our first official competition together, with a 4th overall in a very strong field.

​

In September 2024 we competed in the National Club Carnival coming away with very good results

​

Acrobatic Gymnastics is a fully self funded sport, and while mum and dad do thier best to support me, and I work part time and run my small business "mr_chalkative" selling liquid chalk for gymnasts, I need some additional support to achieve my goals

​

Fundraising from this project will go towards

​

1. Training fees and equipment - To compete at this level I train 20 + hours a week all year round, and also I need to maintain and replace my personal equipment from time to time.
2. Travel and Accommodation - For competitions at state, national and international level
3. Choreography and specialist coaching - We will need to develop new routines over the next two years to ensure we are performing at the highest standards
4. Competition Leotards - We will likely need one or two new competition leotards over the next two years. Custom leotards for acrobatics can cost several hundred dollars each.
5. Physio and Sports Nutrition - Professional guidance and treatment to keep me in peak physical condition and avoid injuries.

​

I am extremely grateful for all donations that allow me to continue following my passion and compete at the highest level in a sport that I love.
