Help get Sadie to QLD for the WA U15s state AFL champions
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
We’re excited to share the incredible story of a talented and determined young athlete from the small town of Donnybrook, WA – 14-year-old Sadie, who has just achieved something truly remarkable.
After years of dedication, hard work, and passion for the game, Sadie has been selected to represent Western Australia in the Under 15s AFL State Team! She’ll be traveling to compete just two days after her 15th birthday – what a way to celebrate!
Sadie’s love for footy runs deep. From the moment she first picked up a ball, it was clear this wasn’t just a hobby – it was her calling. She’s a strong, focused, and fearless player who gives everything on the field. Whether she’s tackling hard, running all day, or lifting her teammates with her positive attitude, Sadie’s presence is felt every minute she plays.
Growing up in a small town like Donnybrook, with 7 brothers and sisters, opportunities like this are rare. But Sadie never let that hold her back. She's traveled long hours for training, made the most of limited resources, and shown resilience beyond her years. Her selection to the WA State Team is a testament to her relentless determination and love for the game.
Now, she’s ready to take the next step – but getting there comes at a cost. With travel and accommodation for her and a chaperone, team uniforms, and weekly trainings all the way up in Perth, the financial challenge is real. That’s why we’re reaching out to our community, friends, and anyone inspired by Sadie’s story for support.
We’re raising funds to help cover the costs of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so Sadie can represent WA with pride and focus on what she does best: playing her heart out.
Every donation, no matter the size, will help get Sadie to the field and show her that dreams really do come true – especially when your community is behind you.
Thank you for supporting this amazing young athlete and being part of her journey
