Athena Takes on Romania: Support her Journey to Junior World Championships!
Raising funds for Athena's journey to the 2023 RG Junior World Championship in Romania, She will be representing New Zealand.
Auckland
I am asking for your support for Athena's upcoming journey to the 2023 RG Junior World Championship in Romania. Athena, currently studying at Westlake Girls School is an incredibly talented gymnast who has been training hard at NHG for the past 7 years, and has already achieved many great accomplishments in her young career.
In 2018, Athena won her first NZ RG Championship (National) and has continued to win gold medals every year since then. She is a three-time NZ National Champion and has also won gold medals for Group and clubs in 2022. This year, she has already won a few Competitions in NZ, and in July, she will be a member of the New Zealand national team competing at the FIG Junior World Championships in Romania.
Athena's dedication and hard work have gotten her to where she is today, and we believe that she has the potential to achieve even greater things in the future. However, as you can imagine, competing at the Junior World Championship is an expensive endeavour, and we are hoping to raise funds to help cover the costs associated with this incredible opportunity.
We are asking for donations of any amount to help Athena make her dream a reality. Every little bit helps, and your support would mean the world to her. All donations will go directly towards covering the costs of travel, accommodations, and competition fees.
We appreciate your support, and thank you for helping us make Athena's dreams come true.
Thank you so much for your support.
Sincerely,
Stephen

Thank you everyone. It won't happen without your support!! 29 July 2023
I'm Athena Li from Auckland New Zealand, and I had the incredible opportunity to display my remarkable skill and determination at the Junior World Championships in Cluj-Napoca, where young athletes from all over the world gathered for an unforgettable competition. As a gymnast representing New Zealand, I felt a sense of pride and responsibility to make my country proud.
The championships took place at the magnificent BT Arena, which added to the enchanting theme of "magic" surrounding the event. It was truly a captivating experience to witness a magician performing on the same stage.
During my week-long stay in Romania, I had the opportunity to explore the country's stunning views and historical landmarks, making it an enriching experience that broadened my horizons.
Undoubtedly, the journey was not without its challenges, but the unwavering support of my coaches, family, and friends provided me with much-needed comfort and motivation. I expressed my heartfelt gratitude to those who stood by me throughout this journey.
As the championships came to an end, I felt an immense sense of pride in how far I had come and in representing New Zealand on the global stage. Leaving Cluj-Napoca, I carried with me unforgettable memories and a profound sense of accomplishment.
Looking ahead, the future looks bright for my gymnastic career, and I am excited to continue working hard and achieving success in the world of gymnastics.
