Des'ree Barnes

“You are your only limit”

After picking up her brothers bike at the age of three, Des’ree taught herself to ride unaided around the families back yard determined to ride on a BMX Track. From that day in 2005 Des’ree has been riding, training and racing, looking to make her own story for the history books.

In 2009 the UCI BMX World Championships were held in Adelaide South Australia, Des’ree’s home town at the time where She won her first Challenge Class World Title at the age of six. During this event Des’ree was given the name ‘Desi-Racer’ by the commentator, a name that has stuck and becoming well known in the BMX World. Since 2009, on a family promise, Des’ree has followed the World Championships across the globe achieving an additional Four World Titles.

Des’ree moved from Adelaide to Redland Bay Queensland when she was Seven (2010) with her family which was a blessing in disguise presenting some amazing tracks to ride and now with a World Class BMX Supercross facility at Sleeman Sport Complex. Sleeman SX Track is frequented and loved by Desi and just twenty minutes from home allowing her to hone her skills on one of the most technical tracks in the world

Des’ree Barnes is a seriously competitive individual and has been from a very young age whether riding her bike, running or just getting to the door in front of the next person. Although Des’ree has learnt how to win in her BMX career thus far, she also knows what it’s like to be beaten, a key element to the growth of any successful athlete.

Since 2010 Des’ree worked with her strength and condition coach learning the movements and skills to build a strong foundation as she grows. In addition to Des'ree's impressive BMX results she has also represented Australia for Olympic weightlifting at the Oceania and comm Championships in 2017, 2018 & 2019 with silver medals. Desree has also recently started track cycling and won the elite team sprint national title at the end of 2020.

There is a fire that burns deep within ‘Desi-Racer’ that cannot be doused, her results, motivation and future goals are testament to this.

Des'ee is focussed on the following goals for 2021 :

Compete at the BMX world championships first year elite.
Qualify for comm games weightlifting.

Des'ree has a number of future goals which include :

Compete at the Paris 2024 Olympics in BMX/ track cycling
Compete at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Olympic weightlifting

Alexandra Bozovic

“When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful”

Inspired by Monica Seles I started playing at the age of 8 with my sister Tatjana Bozovic. I was guided by my dad growing up who was a former professional boxer. From the first day on court, I learnt quickly what hard work and discipline consisted of, and throughout my schooling years, spent countless hours before and after school training. There were no shortcuts or excuses. Following our training sessions there was always additional training. When everyone finished 2.5 hours of squads or training and left the courts, I always stayed behind doing extra running, push ups and sit-ups around the soccer oval next to the tennis courts.

My father strongly believed and instilled in us, that in order to be the best, you always need to train and put in more work than the rest of your competitors. I also did a lot of squad swimming in my early years of tennis as complementary fitness which resulted in my swimming coach encouraging me to pursue a swimming career. I was determined to put in the work for tennis and get to the top. I have competed internationally in all professional tournaments from ITFs, WTAs and have played the Australian Open three times. Last year we were unable to travel and compete due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Unable to play any WTA ranking tournaments, Tennis Australia organised Universal Tennis Ranking (UTR) tournaments for Australian players, where we could compete against Australia’s best players.
I never stopped training during lockdown, and after winning six UTR events and making four finals, I was named Australia’s top performing female player of the year. This year I competed in the Australian open qualifying in Dubai, where I unfortunately had my very first serious sports injury. After some time off, I am back competing and have won the last two Australian Money Tournaments and am greatly looking forward to travelling overseas to compete on the WTA Tour.

Lauren Reynolds

“Fall down seven times, stand up eight ”

I am a 29 year old Female Elite BMX racer and 2012/2016 Olympian from Bunbury, Western Australia.

Currently residing in San Diego, California.

Growing up as a tom boy following my brothers foot steps I have been on bikes or anything with wheels since I learnt how to ride.

I started building dirt jumps and jetty jumping into the river from the age of 6.

I then tried BMX racing for the very first time at the age of 9 and won !

Since then I have not looked back winning my first State Championships at age 9 , my first National Championships at age 10 and my first World Title at age 12.

I joined the Australian National team at the age of 17.

In 2009 I stated competing on the World Cup series with my first podium coming in France in 2010.

In 2013 I signed my first professional contract to race in the USA.

I now compete on the international circuit which has me traveling to all corners of the globe in an effort to become the fastest female BMX racer on the planet.

BMX is a combination of speed, power, fitness, finesse and skill. It is the ultimate adrenaline rush and the Olympics new favourite sport.

What many people don't know about me is that I am a lover of fishing. I spend my Christmas holidays and time off BMX deep sea fishing with my Dad off the coast of WA in Australia.

I also have a crazy love for Coffee and hope to expand on this love once my BMX days are behind me.

My goals for the coming year is to focus on selection for the 2020/1 Tokyo Olympics.

I also want to give back to the sport I love and work with young kids coming up through the ranks.

“The harder you work, the luckier you get”

I started playing hockey when I was 4/5 years old in North Queensland.

I was then selected by the QAS to move to Brisbane after school in 2013 to train.

Two years later I was very fortunate to be selected to move to Perth and to start training with the Hockeyroos squad.

I made my Australian debut in 2015 but unfortunately tore my ACL at the end of the year which ruled me out for the whole of 2016.

I am now fully recovered and looking forward to playing my best hockey ever with the Australian team.

My short term goals for the coming year are to medal with the team at the World Cup in London in 2018.

My focus will then be on the Olympics in Tokyo in 2020.

My family has been my biggest support over the years and I’m very lucky to have them.

Alexandra Kiroi-Bogatyreva

“Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footprints on the moon”

Alexandra’s first experience in gymnastics started with kinder gym and dance when she was only 3 years old. At the age of 6 Alexandra began Rhythmic gymnastics starring at Prahran Rhythmic Gymnastics.

The first breakthrough in the sport was in 2012, when at the age of 10 Alexandra qualified to her first “Nationals” where she ended up on the podium, taking her first National Title in individual apparatus amongst Level 7 International stream.

The following year Alexandra made her first International debut, taking on the Spanish International Tournament “Vitry Cup” run by Olympic bronze medallist and World Champion Olena Vitrichenko. Competing against girls from world dominating countries like Russia, Ukraine and Belarus it was to everyone’s surprise to hear the Australian Anthem in the competition of Alexandra’s level, that was her first International gold medal.

Year by year moving through levels and showing consistency and dedication Alexandra earned herself a reputation and a name as a hard working and very talented athlete with a passion for the sport and true sportsmanship.

These qualities didn’t come out of nowhere. Alexandra grew up in a family with high regards for sport. Her family competed in: track and field (grandmother), volleyball (grandfather – still plays and coaches), mother (Ballroom and Latin dancer – former NZ champion).

By the time she turned 16 Alexandra competed in more than 10 countries, with a number of wins and podium places. She started spending time in Europe getting additional training with World Class coaches that are recognized to be the best in the world in Rhythmic gymnasts.

In 2018 Alexandra has reached the uppermost level in her sport turning Senior International. The year started with her successful qualification for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games at the inaugural RG (rhythmic gymnastics) Australia Cup FIG (international gymnastics federation authorized event). At the Australia Cup Alexandra took 2 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze medal, qualifying for the Commonwealth Games. The Commonwealth Games results showed that Alexandra was deservedly in the Team. She was the youngest member of Australian Gymnastics Team and became the youngest Rhythmic Gymnast in 20 years to win an individual medal at the event. With 2 bronze medals and tons of experience Alexandra was ready for more. 2 Weeks after the Commonwealth Games – she made her first World Cup debut, taking on 3 World Cups in a row and earning her first world ranking points.

Upon her return from the World Cup tour Alexandra took on the Australian Championship. Her first National in Senior International Level resulted in the 2018 All Around Championship Title and 3 more individual apparatus titles, ranking Alexandra #1 in Australia.

Alexandra qualified for the World Championships, and making yet another debut at the most important event of the year. Currently Alexandra is ranked number 1 in Oceania. At only 16 years of age the journey has just begun.

Michaela Davis-Meehan

“Train hard, win easy”

Michaela Davis-Meehan has reached the pinnacle of elite big mountain riding as a Freeride World Tour (FWT) 2020 athlete.

Michaela achieved this by winning the Freeride World Qualifier Tour (FWQ) in 2019 - the first Australian to do so in this European dominated competition.

Michaela started her Rookie year with a silver podium in Hakuba, Japan and again made history finishing on top of the podium in Andorra in March; the first Australian, male or female, skier or snowboarder, to take Gold in this event.

With the Verbier Xtreme Grand Finale cancelled, Michaela has finished the FWT in 2nd overall and has qualified for the FWT 2021.

Michaela comes from a slopestyle background having represented Australia at World Cups and World Championships and having made the Shadow Olympic team in 2014.

Despite these achievements her path has not been easy with several injuries including a broken back at an elite slopestyle event in the USA in 2010. This required two surgeries and was potentially career ending. Michaela's passion for snowboarding and love of the mountains drove her on and kept her in freeride even after a knee reconstruction in 2017.

Michaela's skill and courage in attacking some of the world's wildest mountains is also evident in her sense of adventure and in her foray into big mountain films. Persian Powder documents a snowboarding trip to Iran, with friends, which won the "best film" category at the Women's Adventure Film Tour.

Michaela is the embodiment of living your 'best life.' Through determination, hard work and a passion for adventure she continuously inspires and encourages everyone she meets to explore more, follow their dreams and fill their life with adventure.

Tay-Leiha Clark

“Stick to your own lane and do what you do best”

At the tender age of 20 Tay-Leiha is an Australian Athlete who is supported in her journey by various organisations that give her the freedom to be a full time athlete.

She is affectionately know as Tay, her main events include Triple Jump, Long Jump and High Jump. Tay was first taken serious as a athlete, in particular as a triple jumper, when at the age of 16 won the silver medal at the Youth Olympics. Being the youngest in the field was not a problem for Tay.

Tay-Leiha is a very talented and physically gifted young athlete, exceling at a high level in a variety of sports. Over the past couple of years she has developed along the athletic pathway and has now established herself as one of the country’s leading young triple jumpers.

Tay-Leiha has a very strong support network in her family, coaches and her training partners and with the right financial support Tay-Leiha and her coaches can concentrate on making sure that the promise she is showing now as a junior athlete enables her to become a world class senior athlete in the future.

The goals for Tay-Leiha in the coming years would be to refine her technique and develop her strength to be competitive at a Senior International level.

Tay is in the process of branding her own line of products, they should be ready for the market in the coming months. This is an exciting time in her life, an opportunity Tay is taking very serious, knowing she can give back to the community.

The Sylvanvale Foundation is a school that gives children with a disability a better quality of life through access to education and social inclusion. This foundation holds a special place in Tay’s heart and from the age of 16 Tay has been an ambassador for them and helps raise much needed funds and awareness for the foundation.

Tay is living the life she has always dreamed of, and hopes to inspire young girls around the world to follow their dreams.

Tay is training hard with her initial goal of competing at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast in Australia and then onwards to the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
