Sofía Gamilla completes her first year as a Valderrama Foundation scholar with her fourth Spanish Championship title. This marks her second consecutive victory in the Under-14 category and her final one before moving up to the Cadet division.
As a gesture of gratitude, she asked La Cañada, her home club, to share the trophy temporarily with Valderrama. Sofía personally presented it to Javier Reviriego so that it could be displayed at the Club.
This summer, each of the six scholars has had the opportunity to discover first-hand Valderrama’s history, the legacy of its great champions, and the privilege and responsibility that come with being part of this project.
In this video, Sofía reflects on what her first year and bringing the trophy to Valderrama have meant to her. The Foundation will continue to support her as she begins this new chapter, and we wish her every success in the Cadet category.
