MARIAFE ARTACHO DEL SOLAR | The beach volleyballer's journey to create a lasting legacy

  • Summary

  • Mariafe moved to Australia as a child from Peru and immediately fell in love with the sport of beach volleyball. 

    It started out as an amateur beach tournament with one of her siblings on Manly beach, but it ended up taking her all around the world. 

    She went from Youth World Championships to Commonwealth Games and has already competed at the Olympics in Rio. 

    Now, she is preparing for her second stint at the Olympic Games, this time with partner Taliqua Clancy. 

    The pair are fresh off a gold medal on the Beach Volleyball circuit in Mexico and want to add Olympic gold to their medal cabinet. 

    In this chat, Mariafe talks about how a signed postcard from Nat Cook and Kerri Pottharst inspired her as a kid, how COVID-19 impacted her preparation for the Olympics and the legacy she wants to create in the sport of beach volleyball.
