Didim student Maya Gördüemel has become the provincial winner of three Aydin junior category titles in swimming.

The American Culture College student raced home to win the provincial women’s 50m breaststroke, women’s 50m backstroke and women’s 50m freestyle in the juniors category of the Aydın school sports swimming races.

Maya, whose mum is Samantha Brown, a long-time resident of Didim, is now entitled to represent Aydın in more regional swimming races this year.

Maya, who has just turned eight years old, was making her first swimming competition debut, and her times even outdid some of the boys’ times in different races.
