Kayaking

  1. Grantee | April 2017

This extraordinary 15 year old is making waves as the youngest member of the NZ U18 Kayak team soon to compete at World Jnr Kayak Champs in Romania. Prior to kayaking, Olivia was a top national level gymnast and only took up kayaking aged 13 for strength training. Within 6 weeks she’d competed and won every race in her first ever kayaking Nationals. Her ultimate goal is to kayak at the Olympics.
