Young fishing star bags gold
Hazeldene’s young angler is continuing to reach milestones in her career.
As part of Sylvie Richards’s journey as a growing angler, she recently attained another milestone in her career.
The Hazeldene youngster was contacted by her home angling club, Rand Piscatorial Association (RPA), and offered the opportunity to be part of the women’s team during this season’s provincial league.
After battling it out for two weekends recently, the RPA women’s team beat their adversaries by one point.
Gold was awarded to the team, which consisted of Annamarie Guy, Karina Pretorius, Linda Steyn, Sylvie Richards, Christelle Delport and Phillip Richards (team captain).
“Her dad, Phillip, and I are very proud to see Sylvie making her mark in the big arena,” said Sylvie’s mother Georgia.
The trophy for the winning team was sponsored by Supercast.
Sylvie and the Penkop team were then rewarded with gold medals, last Saturday, at the Gauteng prize-giving, for winning the League D division.
“Sylvie continues to make us proud,” said Georgia.
