8 Gold with 3 Records Plus Best 8&U Swimmer Award

The number 8 seemed significant for eight-year old Monica Botha at the TYR Westville Sprints Gala, held from 27-29 November 2015 at Kings Park swimming pool in Durban.

Monica swam 8 events, placed first in all of her events (Gold) and set 3 new swimming records.

This performance earned the most points in the female 8 & Under category, and she was rewarded a R250 TYR voucher for her efforts.

This is the second year that she held the title and received the prize.
