Reeva Sakaria - Gold medalist!

Big surprises come in pretty little small packages! Reeva Sakaria age 13 has proved the same by securing the first position at national level artistic skating category held by RFSI in Vishakapatnam from 6th Jan, 2011 to 10th Jan, 2011.
Maharashtra did rake up a whole lot of medals among which the following were from Mumbai.
1) Reeva Sakaria who bagged a Gold Medal in artistic skating.
2) Miloni Kapadia won a silver medal in figure skating and also secured the 2nd position in artistic skating.
3) Gauravi Shantaram who won a Silver Medal in the free dance on wheels category in the 10-12 age group.
4) Drashta Shelawalla who bagged a Bronze Medal in the figure skating boys category in the 12-14 age group.
5) Gitika Daswani won a Gold Medal in free dance on wheels category and a bronze medal in the figure skating.

The other participants who missed a medal by a small margin but put up stellar performances were Divyangana Sagar, Yasha Patel. All these champions rise from Bombay Roller Skating Association(BRSA) at Fellowship school, August Kranti run by Mr. Pradeep Jhaveri and under the guidance of coach Mrs. Smita Seth and Mr. Jaspal Khurana.

Even after having seasoned skaters in her category Reeva Sakaria was the flag bearer for Maharashtra, with her flawless performance. Hence it is no surprise she bagged rank 1, in the 12-14 girls artistic skating category, hence having raised the bar for the rest of the nation.

Reeva, not only our family but the nation is proud of you!
