Send Jason to Canada to represent AFL Ireland!
Hi, my name is Jason and I am fundraising for an upcoming trip to Toronto, Canada at the start of August this year. I got selected to represent the Irish Warriors (Irish Australian Rules Football National Team) in an international tournament called 'The Transatlantic Cup'.
This tournament will run from August 2nd - 11th and will involve nations from North America, South America and Europe! I have been playing Aussie Rules for just over 2.5 years now, since my flatmate introduced me to it. Ever since, I have been on trips at club and international level to places like Cardiff, Manchester, Hamburg, Paris, etc. Aussie Rules has become a huge passion of mine!
Aussie Rules is an amateur sport worldwide (except in Australia) and so there is limited funding. I will be using donations to help cover costs such as flights, accommodation and team gear/kit. Flights are roughly €600 to and from Toronto. I am getting my accommodation for two weeks for the great price of €275. And the Irish Warriors Gear/Team Kit will cost me €150. There are other minor costs such as travel to London to play against Team GB & France in June, as well as travel costs to training sessions in Cork and Dublin (the 2 hubs of Irish AFL).
Thank you for taking time to read about my upcoming journey and my passion for representing my country Ireland in Toronto. Your support means the world to me, and any donations, will make a huge difference! Thank you for your generosity and belief in my mission.
Jason.
