Hi everyone, my name is Yas, and I am a dedicated American football athlete with eight years of experience competing at both national and international levels. I have proudly represented Great Britain, earning silver medals at the IFAF World Championships and European Championships. I have also played for top club teams, including the London Warriors, Hertfordshire Cheetahs, and Helsinki Wolverines, winning multiple championships along the way.

I recently signed with the DC Divas in Washington to compete in the Women’s Football Alliance (WFA), the highest level of women’s American football, and an amazing opportunity for a sportswoman like myself!

However, since this opportunity is largely self-funded due to visa restrictions and lack of financial support in the sport, I need your help to make this dream a reality. Between travel, accommodation, equipment, insurance, and training and fitness costs, competing at this level requires significant financial backing.

Women’s American football is still growing and Is - for the most part- considered to be amateur sport! I am so honoured to be joining a team that is able to provide accommodation so I am able to be part of such an incredible experience! Unlike our male counterparts, we don’t have the same access to professional contracts. Your support—no matter how big or small—will help me continue to compete at the highest level, inspire future generations of female athletes, and prove that women belong in this sport.

If you can, please donate or share this campaign to help me on my journey. Every contribution brings me one step closer to representing my team and country at the top level. Thank you for believing in me!
