Celebrating Athletes Through Arts & Culture

[Diplomat_Peter]

Among other sports achievements that [South Africans ](http://South Africa https://maps.app.goo.gl/RG8Aa8KBi5x5vHc4A)celebrates and pride themselves of, swimming is one thats gets supports mostly when there are tournaments. Below I will be sharing photos of swimmers celebrated through sculptures:

This complex has a number of shops and restaurants on the ground floor. Every time I visit with my children the elder one reminds me of the actions that the swimmer is about to take.

While taking these photos with my daughter she would be explaining to me excitedly what the swimmer is doing.

South Africans and other nations of Africa come together during major sports tournaments like Olympics to watch various games including swimming e.g. schoenmaker-wins-gold-smashes-world-record-to-make-history-in-tokyo || natalie-du-toit breaking records

True @NahidHossain that sports unite nations for good. I have seen myself watching Rugby during major events even though I am not a regular fan.
