Description
I first started out when I had my 6th birthday party and fell in love with the sport. I’ve been taking lessons ever since. I face a new challenge every day with trying to land a new jump or master a new spin. I’ve achieved lots in my sport, but I was especially proud of when I qualified for Australian Nationals and when I placed 2nd in New Zealand Nationals.
I need your assistance to help my family pay for me to go to Brisbane in July to gain this important experience competing overseas which hopefully will help me achieve my goal of scoring well at Australian Nationals.
My dad is self-employed so unless he is doing well we aren’t making much money. I’m getting higher up in levels in my sport and are required to compete at more competitions. And they can’t afford for me to go to all of them but the competitions will really benefit me.
I need help to compete in Brisbane at Winter Sun. This competition is important to give me experience competing overseas so I can score better at Australian Nationals.

SPORTING GOALS
– Land my double axel (2 and 1/2 rotations)
– Do a clean program when I compete (land all my jumps fully-rotated and gain levels on my spins)
– Score well at Australian Nationals (I can achieve this if I have experience at Winter Sun)
HIGHEST SPORTING ACHIEVEMENTS
I qualified for Australian Nationals and when I placed 2nd in New Zealand Nationals.
