Help Annabelle Make The Aussie Team

Hi,

my name is Sim Shelton. I am fundraising for my daughter Annabelle who has been selected to represent Australia on an international tour of Fiji playing Futsal in July 2024

Last month Annabelle Shelton was honoured to captain the Far Northern NSW 14’s girls team at the National Schools Futsal Championships in Brisbane against teams from right across the country..

From her strong leadership and court skills shown at this tournament, Annabelle has now been selected to represent Australia in the 15’s girls Futsal team on their international tour of Fiji in July 2024 featuring a match series against the Fijian national team across Suva and Nadi. This is Annabelle’s second Australian Team selection having been selected for

the 14’s girls tour of the United Kingdom in April 2023

As you can imagine, an international tour of this magnitude comes as a large financial endeavour which is why we are approaching you for any assistance you might be willing to offer. All assistance no matter how big or small will be greatly appreciated.

My daughter Annabelle is 14 years old and a year 8 student at Nambucca Valley Christian Community School. She is an enthusiastic sportsperson having regularly represented the school at State and Regional carnivals in swimming, athletics, cross country, soccer, touch football and especially futsal.

Annabelle has been playing football since she was around 6 years old and is currently playing up in the 16’s girls team for Bellingen Football Club, even though she is still only 14, in the North Coast Football region and is a member of the North Coast Football 15’s Talented Female Football Program Squad. We have also just found out that Annabelle has been selected in a futsal talent identification program to play a week long national tournament in Sydney next January.

Her dream is to play for the Matildas at the 2032 Olympics in Brisbane and hopes that this international tour selection is a step towards that dream.

Thank you for your consideration,

Sim Shelton
