My name is Max Luftensteiner, and I am thrilled to say that I have been selected to compete in the 2024 Hockey Australia Under 14 Championships in Perth at the end of September! This is an incredible honour and a dream come true for me, as hockey is my greatest passion.

However, I need your help to make this dream a reality. Competing at this level involves significant expenses, and I am seeking your support to help with these vital costs:

1. Travel and Airfares to Perth: The championship is being held in Perth, which means I need to cover airfare and travel expenses to get there.
2. Player Levies and Uniform: There are player levies and uniform costs that I need to cover to ensure I am fully equipped to compete.
3. Training Costs: Leading up to the championship, I will be training with my team in Canberra twice a week. This involves travel fees and fuel costs for the regular trips from Wodonga to Canberra.
4. Equipment: Having the right equipment is crucial for performing at my best, and your support will help me secure everything I need.

I am incredibly excited about this opportunity. It means so much to me to be able to train under amazing coaches, be part of a fantastic team, and bond with my teammates. Playing hockey on the same grounds as my idol, Blake Govers, in Perth is something I have always dreamed of.

This experience will not only help me improve my skills but also inspire me to keep striving for excellence in the sport I love. Your support, no matter how big or small, will make a huge difference in helping me achieve my goals.

Please consider supporting my journey to the 2024 Hockey Australia Under 14 Championships. Your generosity will be greatly appreciated, and I promise to give my all in representing our community on this national stage.

Thank you for taking the time to read my appeal and for considering my request.

Warm regards,

Max Luftensteiner
