The Road to the Chengdu World Games

Hi everyone,

For those of you that don't know me I am Paul, I'm a paddler from Salmon Leap Canoe Club and I’m delighted to announce I’ve been selected to represent Ireland in Canoe Marathon short and long courses, at the World Games in Chengdu, China — It's an opportunity of a lifetime for me to put on the green jersey and compete on the biggest stage against the best in the world.

This long journey comes with significant costs, including travel, equipment, boat rental, and other race-related expenses. As an amateur athlete, I receive little to no financial support, and I’m reaching out to ask for your help to make this dream a reality.

Every donation, big or small, goes directly toward helping me compete at the highest level and proudly represent Ireland. I’ve put everything into my training and preparation — now I just need a bit of help getting to the start line.

Thanks so much for your support!!

— Paul ‍
