Help the Aquaferns New Zealand Artistic Swimming Team get to the World Championships in Japan

The New Zealand Artistic Swimming Team (Aquaferns) need your help to make their dreams come true. The Team have been training hard to represent New Zealand on the world stage at the Aquatic World Championships in Japan, July 2023. They are up against countries with teams of professional athletes, but that is not putting them off. The Aquaferns want to make history, and they need your help to do so. Your support will help them to be at their best and achieve what no other NZ Artistic Swimming Team has been able to - to rank higher than any other team in the Oceania region and give themselves the best possible shot at going to the Paris Olympic Games in 2024.

These 10 outstanding athletes have put school and work on hold, to train over 30 hours a week to make New Zealand proud. The Aquaferns are stepping up and working harder than ever, but that won't be enough to achieve their goals. They can't do it alone. They need support with funding to get them to Japan, and to provide just some of the support their competitors have permanent access to, such as nutritionists, sports psychologist and acrobatics training. The costs are escalating and when the girls are not able to work due to training, finding the money to get themselves to World Championships becomes extremely difficult, if not impossible.

We would love you to show them your support with a contribution, any little bit helps.
