Her story
More than a
swimmer.
Daniela Mansour is a 13-year-old competitive freestyle swimmer from Maputo, Mozambique. Representing Clube de Natação de Maputo and the Mozambican national federation, she is one of the most promising young swimmers in East Africa.
Born to Mozambican and Portuguese heritage, Daniela brings the fire of two nations to every race. She competes in the 50m, 100m, and 200m freestyle events, with her natural speed and relentless work ethic setting her apart from her peers.
At just 13, she is already setting personal bests that place her among the top age-group swimmers in the region — and she is only getting started.
"Every race is a chance to be better than yesterday."
— Daniela Mansour
