Let's help Joel get to the Deaf Olympics and World Cup!
LETS HELP JOEL LIVE HIS DREAM!
We posted earlier this year of the journey one of our U16A keepers, Joel Blanchfield, who had been selected in the Australian U23 Deaf Football team. The team will heading off very shortly to Japan for the 2025 Deaf Olympics. After a short break the team will then be off to the Deaf Football World Cup!
Unfortunately Football Australia doesn't fund our deaf footballers which has meant Joel has to fund his own way which he has been working at non stop.
Let's dig deep and help Joel live his dream of playing for his country and head over to his gofundme page and show him your support....one last push to help get him across the line.
