Support Riss' Boxing Journey
Support Riss' Boxing Journey
Your donation is supporting Marissa Williamson Pohlman
Marissa “Riss” Pohlman’s incredible journey began when she discovered boxing as a way to escape a difficult childhood marked by foster care and homelessness. Boxing quickly became her passion and transformed her life as she embarked on her amateur boxing career at just 17 years old.
The turning point in Riss’s career came when she received the prestigious 2021 Sport Australia Hall of Fame scholarship, which provided the financial support she needed to pursue her dreams.
She draws strength and inspiration from her coach, Kel Bryant OAM, who operates a not-for-profit boxing gym dedicated to developing national champions. Marissa credits both her coach and her challenging upbringing as the driving forces behind her determination to succeed against all odds.
