Auckland
Hi everyone! 👋
My name is Austin and I’m 8 years old. I’ve been training hard in GKR Karate and I’ve just received the amazing opportunity to represent New Zealand at the GKR Karate World Cup in the UK in July 2026! 🥋
This is a dream come true — but I need your help to get there!
Your support will go towards travel, accommodation, training gear, and all the costs involved in getting to the World Cup. Every little bit helps, and I’m so grateful for any donation or even a share of this page.
I’m dedicated to training, working hard every week, and I can’t wait to show the world what a Kiwi kid can do!
Thank you so much for supporting me on this journey — let’s do this together!

Use of funds
Money raised will go towards Austin’s travel to the UK, accommodation, training gear, competition fees, and other essential costs to get him to the GKR Karate World Cup.

Austin has packed the last few weeks with training and fundraising!
At the end of November, he took on the intense “100 Rounds of Kumite” challenge and even joined an additional session dedicated to mastering the Bassai Dai Kata. On top of that, he and his team fired up two sausage sizzles, raising funds to help get them to the World Cup next year.
