INDIGENOUS trailblazer Taliqua Clancy and Peruvian-born Mariafe Artacho del Solar will create beach volleyball history on the Gold Coast in April when they represent Australia in the sport’s Commonwealth Games debut.
Clancy was Australia’s first indigenous beach volleyball Olympian in Rio in 2016 and will team up with Artacho del Solar who moved to Australia from Peru when she was 11.
They only formed as a team in October last year but have been undefeated since on the Asian and FIVB World Tour.
