Hi, my name is Zara and I've just turned 9 years old and I've been given the amazing opportunity to represent GB at the Matt Fiddes International Martial Arts Championships as part of the MF United GB Team competing in Australia in 2027. I have been training since I was 4 and have competed in the South West Regionals in 2022 where I won gold, silver and bronze medals. I've also competed in the Team Fear Interclub competition 2024 where I won gold and silver. I have been training very hard and just competed in the South West Regional Championships 2025 where I won Gold and Silver medals. I'm currently training for the Internationals Championships held in the UK this year. I'm trying to raise funds now to be able to compete in the 2027 Matt Fiddes International Championship Competition held in Australia representing GB. My goal is to raise £4,000 to cover some of the costs to get to Australia to compete. I shall be completing various challenges over the next 2 years to try raise the funds required. I would appreciate any support you could give and thank you for reading.
