A fantastic achievement by young athlete Vaggelitsa Skylla (U16 – daughter of former champion Aggeliki Kalikatzarou) coached by Nikolas Korfias!
She won the bronze medal in the Women’s 400m at the 36th Aegean Games held in Chios, despite being four age categories younger than most of her competitors!
Her very first medal, in her very first participation in the Aegean Games!
