<div>At 23 years old, Annie packed up her life in London and moved across the world to Australia to chase something bigger for herself.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No family here. No safety net. Just a goal, a gym, and the willingness to work harder than everyone around her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since walking into Alpha, she’s become family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Most people only see the medals, the records, the lifts. They don’t see the early mornings, the pressure, the sacrifices, or the nights when quitting would’ve been easier.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now all that work has led to something massive:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Annie has been invited to represent Australia at the IPF Junior World Championships.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is the highest level in powerlifting. The best athletes in the world are stepping onto one platform.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And she earned her place there.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recently, Annie went 9/9 in competition, broke multiple records, including a national total record, won her division, and took out Junior Female Champion.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re raising money to help cover flights, accommodation, competition fees, and the costs that come with competing on the world stage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At Alpha, we always say this place is bigger than a gym.
</div>
<div>This is proof of that.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If Annie’s ever inspired you, trained beside you, supported you, or made this place feel like home, now’s our chance to back her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation helps.
</div>
<div>Every share matters.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Let’s help one of our own walk onto the world stage knowing her family stands behind her. ❤️
