During the official Dutch Athletics Championships for the 14-15-year-old age group, saw Dario win 2 gold and 1 silver medal across several disciplines.

In the javelin, he achieved a personal best by throwing 60.16 to win a javelin gold - a new club record and 7th place at all times in the Netherlands. He won the gold medal in the shot put, with a throw of 16.42 - a personal best, and a season-best of the Netherlands 2016.

The silver medal was won in the final of the 150m sprint in a time of 17.62, with Dario again setting a new club record. Racing with a team of boys in the 16-17 age group, Dario won the gold medal during the final of the B competition.

With his own team of 14-15-year-olds, another gold medal was earned in the final of the competition, which resulted in the fastest 4x100m relay ever to have been run in the Netherlands with a time of 44.91!

This, together with earlier success in the indoor titles, gold medals in both the 60m sprint and shot put, makes Dario 6 times National champion of the Netherlands in 2016!
