Lizzie Cui on her way to Junior World Championships

Lizzie Cui has begun her trip to Junior World Championships after a fantastic build up.

"Tomorrow I leave for my World Junior Championships adventure and I really have to thank everyone who supported me in one way or another. A special mention to the Don Oliver Youth Sports Foundation, APS, AJ Russel, Mr Sam Chow, Henderson High School, those who donated to my givealittle, those who came to my movie fundraiser, Aurelie Gibson, Jamie Rodriguez and my family. Without all of your support it would not of been possible for me to be going to World Juniors tomorrow. I am extremely nervous and excited and I'm going to try my very best to make New Zealand proud."

No doubt that she will make all of West Auckland proud. If you would like to find out how she went get yourself a ticket to the Annual Awards Dinner on the 19th September.
