Hey everyone,
For those who are not aware, I have been a fencer for majority of my life (the sport of fencing ).
First of all I would like the thank everyone who donated and supported me for my Oceanic Fencing Championships last year.
Your support allowed me to go overseas, represent Australia and get easily my best ever results for the rest of that Fencing season (6th on Oceania in individuals, 3rd in teams (and first international medal), and ended the season with gold in the Victorian State Championships.
These results ended out in me getting selected as part of the Australian Fencing Squad (The squad is where they select teams from, similar to the Australian Cricket Squad or an AFL List), then from here I was selected for next year's Men's Sabre World Cup in Europe.
Unfortunately Fencing is a minor sport in Australia so whilst it is a full professional sporting event, I am expected to pay my own way (Flights and accommodation).
Because of this I'm currently looking for support, to assist with flights, travel and equipment costs (if I can find a way I will also attempt a few satellite competitions and go for an Olympic qualifying run).
I have set up a fundraiser with the Australian Sporting Foundation (completely tax deductible as well!), if anyone would be happy to assist that would be massive for myself.
You can find this here - Sam Bonser Fencing Season
Once again, huge thank you to everyone who helped last time! I also want to say I'm aware that the financial climate is more broken that ever so even if you cannot donate, but simply leave words of encouragement here instead that would be amazing!
I'm also looking for a good sports dietitian so if you know anyone please let me know
Thanks <3
