Help me achieve my Olympic Dream!
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Fin and I am trying to raise funds to support me achieve my dream of representing Team GB at the Winter Olympics (2034). Can you help me?
In 2023, I attended a ‘learn a new sport day’ or in other words a talent identification day at Leeds cycle track. I thought I was going to learn to roller ski and little did I know, though had some suspicions - Team GB kit, that British Biathlon were looking for new talent. And so, the journey began! In two years, I’ve gone from next to no knowledge to being hooked on the sport of Biathlon (and some may say I’m quite good!) Representing Team GB at Biathlon is not an unrealistic dream.
The past two years have given me opportunities that at one time I could have only dreamed about: access to top quality training, travel and representing Team GB at the World Youth Championships. As it’s a winter sport, you’ve probably guessed - it’s not cheap! There’s no snow or not enough in the UK. Training camps alone cost £1,800 without airfares or equipment. And then there’s the equipment!
So, if I am to continue, my Mum and I need to ask for some help for the next part of my journey. Can you support me and ensure I (newt.on.skis) competes in the international biathlon union winter 2025/26 season?
