Help Alex compete in the 2024 Dodgeball World Championships

Hi everyone! For those of you who may not know, international dodgeball is a very real thing!
I have had the privilege to represent Australia at the Dodgeball World Championships since 2016. This year, the tournament is in Austria, and I am hoping on calling on friends and family to help support my journey.
Unfortunately, I experienced some devastating setbacks in 2023. Having to take substantial leave from work after the death of my mother, as well as time off work due to knee surgery (and all the associated medical costs), means it is a struggle to pay for things like weekly trainings, uniform, and travel.
Dodgeball has provided some of my fondest memories, and the experiences I have made along the way are like no other.
Currently, our sport receives little to no funding, so everything that we do is paid for entirely by the players. I would love to see that change, and I work hard to give what I can back to our community and encourage more participation in our sport - particularly for females.
If you have even a small amount to spare, any contribution will not go unnoticed or unappreciated.
Also - if you'd like to give dodgeball a go - let me know!
