WATER SPORT NEWS - One of the youngest members in South Africa’s Commonwealth Games Team, Duné Coetzee, proved she is in good form by winning three gold medals at the South African Junior Championships in Durban.
The 15-year old Tuks swimmer won the 200m as well as 400m-freestyle events in her age-group and was victorious in the 200m-butterfly.
“I did not break any records, but it was not the plan, as I did not taper down at all for the championships. I saw it as a good hard training session before the Commonwealth Games.
"What was exciting is that I managed to qualify in the 200m and 400m-freestyle races for the Youth Olympic Games. So I am satisfied with my performance,” said Coetzee who bettered quite a few South African records in her age-group over December during the qualifying gala.
