Nelson / Tasman
Hi my name is Harry Edwards.
I am a 15 year old student at Nelson College. I have been playing Ultimate Frisbee for a year and a bit now and I have recently been selected for the New Zealand Under 20 Ultimate Frisbee team to travel to Malmo Sweden (July 2020) for the World Ultimate Junior Championships.
Not long ago I was privileged to travel with the NZ U20 team to the Asia Oceanic Junior Ultimate Champs held in Manila, Philippines. This was a 3-day tournament participated by Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Philippines. Being the youngest member of the team and the only one from Nelson, this was an amazing experience as it was my first ever time out of New Zealand and my first international tournament.
Now that I have the opportunity to go to the World's to compete against more countries in a week-long tournament this has encouraged me to train even harder.
The cost of this amazing experience is going to cost approximately $7,000. We are an underfunded minority sport and I am working very hard at work (catering) and on the field training. I am also doing several fundraisers (making & selling baking at school, Quiz nights with my club) around my community to help raise money. Any donation would be greatly appreciated and make it easier on my family and I.
Mum and Dad.
I have 3 training camps in Auckland and Wellington over coming months and then the travel & accommodation for Malmo Sweden
Many thanks for the donation. Harry
