From Darren Louie, DieselFish Youth Team Coach (who coaches our group of teens):
As
you know I've had the wonderful privilege of coaching DFY now for five years
and this year is special as we have four of our young athletes competing for
the U16 Team USA at the world championships in Welland, Canada in August 2015.
On the team are Kiana, Nathan, Jet and
Orion all of whom who are 13 and 14 years of age respectively. These four are
very young but have incredible potential and have earned a spot on Team USA.
I'm
writing this message to ask for your financial support to help fund their trip
to Canada.
Unfortunately,
in the sport of Dragon boating, there is no funding or scholarships for junior
athletes and this is why we need help. The trip is estimated to be $1,800 to
$2,000 per athlete, and I was hoping you could make a small donation to help
offset some of the costs.
The
kids have set up a
RocketHub crowdfunding project site where
you can read about their stories and easily make a donation.
Thank
you so much for your support. Any help that you can provide would be very much
appreciated.
Paddles
up,
Darren
