My name is Rodney Cruden-Powell, I'm 16 from New Plymouth and I have been an Inline Hockey goalie since 2007 and have played for the New Plymouth Ravens, the Central Allstars and the New Zealand U14s in that time. I have recently been selected for the New Zealand under 17s to go to Australia in April for the Oceania tournament, and the Junior Men (Under 18s) to go to Argentina in June for the FIRS World Champs.

The total cost for these events combined is estimated at about $6000. Although I have been running other fundraising events, doing extra work such as babysitting and paper runs, this is still a lot of money to try to earn and raise in such a short amount of time, so your donations will be greatly appreciated. All of the money raised will go towards flights and accommodation.

I hope you can help me achieve my dream of playing for New Zealand once again. Thanks.
