Join Eliza's campaign to cox the New Zealand U19 Men's 8+ at the World Champions in Lithuania, fuelled by her passion and impressive record
Christchurch, Canterbury
In just her fourth season of rowing, Eliza has already made an incredible mark on the sport. From rowing for Cashmere High School to proudly serving as Rowing Captain this year, her dedication and talent shines through. Remarkably, Eliza holds a Gold medal from every Maadi Regatta she's attended, along with 2 National Age Group course records both as a rower and now, in her first year as a coxswain!
Now, this strong young woman has been selected to cox New Zealand's top U19 rowers at the World Championships in Lithuania. This nine-week campaign is a significant commitment, including six weeks of intensive training camp at Lake Karapiro followed by three weeks training and competing on the world stage. Being chosen to lead such an elite crew speaks volumes about Eliza's skill, leadership, and resilience.
Let's help Eliza seize this incredible opportunity to represent New Zealand and continue her golden streak on the world stage. Your support will directly contribute to her campaign costs and help this talented young coxswain achieve her dreams. Every donation, big or small, will make a real difference. Join Eliza's journey to the U19 World Rowing Championships and be a part of her success!
Eliza is the eldest of my 2 daughters.
Any funds raised will be used to pay for the $5,000 cost of the training camp and the $15,000 cost of the European campaign
