Hiwot Teshome

Wrestling coach, Mekelle Swimming Club

  • 🇪🇹 Mekelle, Tigray, Ethiopia
  • Mekelle Swimming Club
  • Since 1981
  • English, Amharic
For 45 years I've run the wrestling program at Mekelle Swimming Club in Mekelle. We trained 3 evenings a week, whatever the weather. Practice always ended with the same rule: nobody walks home alone. I sing in a choir.

More about Hiwot

I still keep the team photo from our best season on the wall.

What gifts mean to Hiwot: I'll put any gifts toward a small fund so no child misses a match because of money.
