Malaika Mihambo, the Sandmaster brand ambassador and winner of the gold medal in the long jump, has been making children mobile since the schools, sports grounds and playgrounds were closed and offers a small sports program for at home on her YouTube live channel every day together with the “Starkmacher” club. The offer is primarily aimed at primary school children, but of course anyone who feels like it can take part.

On YouTube, she currently presents small challenges and tasks for the children every day at 10:00 am under a regularly changing motto. “Especially in these times movement is so important for the children, the children need distraction, structure and in the best case they learn something”, says the 26-year-old athlete.

We can only recommend this program for children and are thrilled with how much joy and commitment Malaika creates the program, live from home from your living room.

Malaika Mihambo is a great hope for the Olympics. Due to the crisis it was postponed to next year and therefore she still has a hard training year ahead of her. When Malaika will be able to start training again is not yet clear, but it could be soon.

Malaika Mihambo won World Championship gold for Germany in Doha (Qatar) in October 2019 with a fantastic 7.30 m long jump. Then she was awarded as Sportswoman of the Year 2019, which are only her current successes.

Sandmaster congratulates Malaika and wants to support her for at least the next two years. We are convinced that we will see much more of this exceptional young talent. And we have more in common than it seems, but more about that later…

Sandmaster cleans and maintains sports surfaces such as sand, gravel, synthetic surfaces and artificial turf. The areas tartan track / run-up track as well as the sand filled jumping pit are not only immensely important for children’s and leisure sports, but even more so for top athletes such as Malaika Mihambo. Malaika not only needs the perfect grip at the inrun, but also sand that has been aerated and cleaned according to the #sandmaster method, which guarantees protection against falling and thus reduces the risk of injury.

We are happy that we can work together with Malaika for the next two years and keep our fingers crossed for the next events!
