Career

Sandra Mikolaschek's disability is based on a constricted carotid artery at birth. After subsequent operations, nerves in the spinal cord were pinched. She has therefore been in a wheelchair from childhood. For the first time she played table tennis at her hometown club TTV Wimmelburg. In order to get ahead in sport, she moved to Düsseldorf in 2014 to the German Table Tennis Center (DTTZ), a sports boarding school.

In 2018, Mikolaschek and her team from Borussia Düsseldorf made up of Thomas Schmidberger and Valentin Baus became German champion in wheelchair tennis for the third time in a row.
