From New Zealand to the USA , help him take the next step.

Our 13 year old son Braxton Matene has been given an incredible opportunity to travel to the USA for basketball an opportunity he has worked tirelessly to earn.

For years, basketball has been more than just a sport to him. We've watched him spend countless hours training, pushing himself to improve, and dreaming of one day competing on a bigger stage.

Now that dream is becoming a reality.

Being selected for this trip is a huge achievement and a reflection of his hard work, dedication, and love for the game. At just 13 years old, he has the chance to experience a level of basketball he has only ever imagined, meet players from around the world, learn from new coaches, and create memories that will shape his future both on and off the court.

As proud parents, we want to give him every opportunity to chase his dreams. However, the costs involved and other expenses are substantial. We are reaching out to our community, friends, family, and kind hearted supporters to help make this once in a lifetime opportunity possible.

Every donation, no matter the amount, brings him one step closer to stepping onto that court in the USA. Your support is not just helping fund a trip it is investing in a young boy's dream.

Thank you for your support
