Thank you note from the team;

To the Greenbank Lions, I want to say thank you. Thank you for everything; for buying a shirt, donating money, for your encouraging words, for your continuous never ending love ❤️
In my match against India I fell short of the win, but I gained so much in knowledge and experience. Mentally I have a lot of growth still to come. Physically and technically I felt solid.
Not the results I hoped for but, a truly eye opening experience. In the last couple years I have progressed beyond what even I thought possible. I’ve hit goals and I’ve made new ones. I’ve suffered set backs, but if you can say anything about me it’s that I am resilient.
Making it to Worlds to have the honour of representing my country and my town was a tremendous milestone and goal achieved. But I’m not satisfied, nor am I done yet. I promise you the best is yet to come. 🇨🇦 ❤️
