Bangala sisters battle it out at Queen of the Sprints 2015!

Johanna pips older sister Maria to win Queen of the Sprints title for first time.

Johanna and Maria were all smiles at the finish.


Johanna Bangala won the Queen of the Sprints competition to snatch the title from her sister Maria in an exciting race on 22nd July. She clocked 13.08 seconds to win by less than a metre from Maria, with the third place competitor, Niza Sikaonga, over a second behind.

In the King of the Sprints competition, pre-race favourite Sambazya Ngulube won in 11.61 seconds.
