MARIA KOUIMANIS

STACKER PROFILE

 Maria has established herself as one of the most dominant competitors in the Seniors 1 Female Division, holding every Australian record in her category by a wide margin. Her exceptional speed has also translated onto the international stage, where she currently holds two Seniors Divisional Asian Records, further cementing her reputation as one of the fastest in her division worldwide.

From the moment she began stacking, Maria’s natural ability was undeniable. She quickly posted times comparable to, and in some cases faster than competitors' decades younger, showcasing her rare talent and competitive edge.

Her rapid rise earned her an invitation to the Australian Lightning team in early 2023. At the Australian Open, she delivered a career highlight by recording her first-ever 2-second 3-3-3 in tournament play, setting a new Divisional Asian Record in the process.

Maria has since proudly represented Australia at the World Sport Stacking Championships in both 2023 and 2024, proving herself as a consistent and formidable presence on the global stage. With her record-breaking performances and relentless drive, Maria continues to inspire and redefine what is possible in the Seniors division.

MARIA'S SPONSORS

  Maria would like to thank her previous Sponsors, Ability Inclusive Services & A&A Services SA.  Maria is currently seeking sponsors for the 2026 AAU Junior Olympics in Des Moines, Iowa. USA
