ABOUT ME:

MY JOURNEY:
I have been selected as part of the Junior Black Sox team to compete in the 2015 European Super Cup Men's Tournament in Prague, Czech Republic. This is a tournament which has teams from all over Europe competing.
GOALS:
My goal is to make the NZ Junior Black Sox team for next year's World Series in Michigan, USA. However being selected to go to Prague is a fantastic opportunity to learn and develop as a player and I am very grateful for this opportunity. I really appreciate the help and support my family, friends, coaches and team mates have given me. All donations are greatly appreciated and will go only towards the cost of the travel for this trip.
I am 17, and have played softball since I was 4 years old. I play softball for Mt Albert Ramblers Softball Club, and the MAGS Premier team. My family includes, my mum, dad, sister and brother. Our summer time revolves around softball. I am currently in Year 13 and work part time at the Auckland Zoo to help fund my trip.
First Training Camp 18 May 2015
Thank you to everyone who has visited my pages and so generously donated to my cause.
Last weekend ( 23-24th May) we had our first Junior Black Sox Training Camp in Wellington. All the boys travelled from around the country to the Trentham Army Camp. Physically it was very challenging, my goal to "not give up" in any of these physical tests was achieved - we also had team bonding exercises. With 3 months until we go to Prague I am training hard and increasing my fitness levels.
Thanks again to all the staff and students who have supported me from Unitec Copy Centre
