2023 Team Australia

Livin’ the Dream

Special Olympics has helped me realise my dream to represent Australia in basketball. It was such an honour to be selected to go to Berlin next year. 

I train twice a week with a basketball coach to help with my footwork, balance and agility, train with Special Olympics once a week and play matches twice a week.

I am looking forward to meeting my interstate team mates at the training camp in February next year before we go to Berlin in June. I have met so many friends since I joined Special Olympics in  2012 and hope to meet many more people from different countries at the World Games. This is a once in a lifetime experience for me.

If you would like to help me on my journey, feel free to make a tax free donation, otherwise follow our page to keep updated about Team Australia’s story at the Berlin World Games 2023.

Will you get me to the World Games?

I'm so proud to have been picked to wear the green and gold at the World Games in Berlin. 

To be part of an Australian team and go overseas will be a dream come true. But I need to raise $9,000 to get there. That’s a lot of money and I need your help!   

Will you please donate today and get me to Berlin? I promise I will do my best and make Australia proud. If you donate through this page YOUR money goes directly towards MY fundraising goal.  

You can donate any amount you want, but I like these amounts:  

$64 because it represents each athlete 

$28 because it represents each official 

$92 because it represents the whole team  

$150 because it’s just a good number!  

I’m told that donations of $2 and over are tax-deductible, so please donate and help me get to the Games. 

I’ll let our team know that you’re awesome because you support us. Thank you!
