Jacqueline says she is happy to "be able to support so many things in this one opportunity"

"There's the family aspect, this thrilling team sport as well as the woman competing that demonstrates woman empowerment. I really admire the discipline it takes to compete and the courage and confidence it inspires in others," she added.
