Hi everyone,

My name is Mckayla Muller and I’m fundraising to help my 11-year-old son, Bailey Muller, achieve a dream he has been working toward since he was just a little boy with a ball at his feet.

Bailey has been playing soccer since he was 4 years old, starting out with the Medowie Bumble Bees. Even back then, he had something special — determination, passion, and that spark every coach noticed.

When Bailey was 8, he was selected to play JDL for Maitland FC, where he has now played for the last three years. He trains twice a week and plays every Saturday, and as a family we travel over an hour each way, three times a week to support his dream. He never complains, he never misses a session, and he gives 110% every single time.

Recently, Bailey received an incredible opportunity.

He was invited to trial for the NSW International Team heading to Japan in March 2026 and out of so many talented kids, he was successfully chosen to go.

We are beyond proud of him.

But the reality is that this amazing opportunity comes with a cost we simply can’t manage on our own. The total cost for Bailey to travel to Japan, including flights, accommodation, training, uniforms, fees and passport is just over $6,000.

As parents, me and Shannon work hard and do everything we can to make sure our finances never hold Bailey back. He is unbelievably talented, dedicated, and deserving — and the last thing we want is for money to be the reason he misses out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

so even if you can spare $5, everything counts and we will be forever grateful ❤️
