NZ representative athlete raising support funds for Commonwealth powerlifting champs 2024 Sun City, South Africa
Te Atatu South, Auckland
Hi, I'm Catherine, a second year PhD student and an avid powerlifter. I've been in competitive powerlifting for almost a decade now, so i'm no stranger to the stage.
I am raising funds to help support my travel to the Commonwealth Powerlifting Championships held in Sun City, South Africa, 4-13th October 2024. I currently have the highest nominated weights over all of the categories (squat, bench, deadlift, total) for my weight class and open age division. Unfortunately powerlifting is not a funded sport in NZ, which means all related travel costs are usually paid by the individual.
In Commonwealths 2022 (AKL, NZ), I obtained an overall bronze medal, with a silver medal in squats against lifters from England and Canada. I have since represented NZ at the Asia Pacific Champs in 2023 to obtain a gold medal placing overall, third best overall female lifter in this competition.
Costs involved (NZD):
Flights: $2800
Accommodation: $1500
Shuttle to and from the airport in SA: $~150
Every little bit of help to help cover these costs would be greatly appreciated, so that I once again represent New Zealand at this competition. Thank you for your support, from the bottom of my heart!
Flights, accommodation, food. No personal travel will be taken on this trip.
