Let’s Get this Girl to London

As of April, Annie is currently #22 on the World Ranking List (without doubles).

The world ranking is what will qualify her for the Olympics. For women, only the top 14 athletes in each division, all from different countries, will be chosen to compete in the London Games.

(“without doubles” – means only 1 athlete from each country is allowed per division. There are repeat countries ahead of her so without those repeats, she’s #22. With doubles, she #37.)

Annie needs our help to make it!  Her summer tour will include Rio de Janeiro & Sao Paulo, Brazil; Miami, Isla Margarita, and San Salvador.  Travel costs are at an all time high and unlike most European, Asian, and South American athletes that are subsidized by their countries, our athletes have to find their own way or they can’t compete.

Please donate any amount you can to help our hometown champion! Thank you for your support.

After an uphill climb from her fights in Venezuela last week, Annie was able to  capture the Bronze medal this weekend in El Salvador, earning her first World Cup Medal!

She will be home at the IC this week so please give her high fives and big hugs.  Congrats Annie!
