I’ll be skateboarding 38km — one kilometre for each of the 38 Sporting Clubs and Communities that have been positively impacted by a SportsCARE Chaplain.

Sport has recently had a huge impact on my life. Through my own sporting community, I’ve experienced an incredible sense of hope, connection, and belonging — and it’s reminded me just how vital total wellbeing is for every athlete, club, and community.

That’s why I’m skating not just to raise funds, but to shine a spotlight on SportsCARE Chaplaincy.

SportsCARE Chaplains selflessly volunteer their time to support the emotional, mental, and spiritual wellbeing of athletes, their clubs, and the wider sporting world. Their work matters — and I want more people to know about it.

So… what am I asking?

I’m asking you to sponsor me with your cold, hard cash 💸 (for a very good cause).

My goal is to raise $10 per kilometre — that’s $380 in total.
But here’s where it gets interesting…

👉 For every donation of $38 or more, I’ll add an extra 380 metres to my total skate distance for the month.

There’s a very real chance this could turn into skating all the way until Christmas 🎄 — but if that’s what it takes, I’m in.

So, will you help me roll toward hope, wellbeing, and stronger sporting communities?

Donate. Challenge me. Cheering loudly also encouraged.

P.S. All KMs will be tracked on STRAVA and updates will be posted here!
