Representing NZ internationally is an honour, but comes at a cost. Can you help NZ's youngest representative U18 women's player get there?

Ice hockey is an uncommon but growing sport in NZ. Women's ice hockey is even more uncommon. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of its development!
The dynamic U18 women's team is headed to Bulgaria in January and Sabina has been selected to play! Let's help get her there.

Post tournament update 11 February 2023
Kia ora everyone! We arrived home after an exhausting but exhilarating two weeks. It was not quite with the result we were hoping for, but coming 4th place with two solid wins and two close games against the top teams is not a bad debut!
One thing's for sure, we made New Zealand history. This was the first time that the NZ U18 Women's team won any international game in their history. You can read about three of the girls on the team in this story from their local town paper that was picked up by national media: https://www.stuff.co.nz/timaru-herald/sport/131169074/young-kiwis-make-ice-hockey-history-in-bulgaria .
I would like to thank all of you for your support and well wishes on my first international tournament. I felt really proud to wear the NZ Black and White, but also to be playing Canada's national game. What a combo!
