I am proud to have been given this incredible opportunity to represent Australia in the 2022 Women’s Gridiron Championships being held in Finland during July and August. 

This is something that I never thought could be possible and hope to inspire others to strive toward their dreams showing them that anything is possible.

Playing sport has always been a passion of mine, since a young age I was always involved in some type of sport whether it was playing or coaching. When offered the chance to play Gridiron I didn’t have to think long about it and within a few days, I was training and loving every minute of it.

I started playing Gridiron in 2019 for the Perth Blitz where we were fortunate enough to win the West Bowl. After having the chance to be coached by some talented people and playing alongside some amazing team members for two seasons, unfortunately, my club couldn’t field a team for the 2021-2022 Season. I then decided to join Swan City Titans who welcomed me with open arms and made me feel a part of the team right away. I will be forever thankful for everyone who inspired me to apply for this opportunity, to every coach who has taught me how to be successful, and for every teammate who will now always be part of my life.

Gridiron is a sport for a range of women no matter who you are. There’s always a spot for anyone who wants to be part of a team and a family or to show that physicality isn’t just reserved for masculine-based competition.

This trip, however, is fully self-funded costing more than $9000.00 not including personal protective equipment. Any assistance would be grateful no matter how small to help me on my journey to represent the Green and Gold for Australia in Finland.

All donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible.

Thank you for your ongoing support
