Help Maadi get to the World Golf Stars Las Vegas

Kia Whanau and friends

In April 2022 Maadi played in the Australian Junior Age Group Division Golf Championship at the Royal Pines Golf Resort. Competing in this Championship has been Maadi's dream for last 4 years. Maadi expected to be there in 2020, however the Covid19 pandemic robbed Maadi of this opportunity. Fast-forward to April 2022, as New Zealand began to lower the Covid restrictions, he was blessed to have the opportunity to represent Aotearoa in Australia.

In Maadi's own words, "Papa I had the time of my life and made some really good friends like Anton, Dan, James and Cody and it was hot too, I really loved it thanks Papa". Maadi played against forty young golfers in the Under 12's Division, with 300 kids competing in the Championship from all over the world. Maadi did himself proud becoming the first young Maori to play in this prestigious event and placing 5th tied overall and 3rd in his 11 year age group. Maadi has now qualified to compete in the Junior World Stars in June 2022 in Las Vegas, another dream come true.

We are so proud of Maadi's accomplishments though unfortunately it is not cheap, therefore we are seeking funding/sponsorship to assist with the cost associated with Maadi's registration and travel.
