Representing my University internationally.
Donation protected
Hi my name is Elizabeth and I do a PhD in performance analysis at Edge Hill University. This year I have qualified to represent my University at the 2025 European University Taekwondo Championships in Warsaw, Poland. As a dedicated taekwondo athlete, this competition represents an incredible opportunity to compete at an international level.
The Journey
My taekwondo journey started 7 years ago and has been filled with late night training sessions, countless bruises, and the unwavering support of my coach who has believed in me every step of the way. Together, we've worked tirelessly to reach this level, and now we have the chance to test our skills against the best university athletes across Europe.
What I'm Fundraising For
I'm raising £2000 to cover essential expenses for both myself and my coach:
• £1000 per person is covering:
○ Accommodation during the championship
○ Flight fees
○ All meals throughout our stay
○ Competition entry fees
Why Your Support Matters
Having my coach by my side is crucial for my performance. Their guidance, strategic insight, and support will be invaluable as I face this high-level competition. This is not just about representing myself, but about representing my University on an international stage.
Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to making this opportunity a reality. Your support means everything as I pursue this once-in-a-lifetime competitive experience.
Thank you for considering supporting my taekwondo journey. I promise to give my absolute best in Poland and make all my supporters proud!
