Maria Faka (Greek: Μαρία Φάκα; born January 2, 1979 in Thessaloniki) is a Greek sport shooter.[2] She was selected as one of eleven shooters to represent the host nation Greece at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, and had yielded numerous top 25 finishes in a major international competition, spanning the ISSF World Cup series and the European Championships.[1] Faka trains at Arhelaos Katerinis Shooting Club in Katerini under the tutelage of Konstantinos Myrotis.[1][3]
Faka was named as part of the host nation's shooting team to compete in the women's 10 m air rifle at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.[4] She had registered a minimum qualifying score of 393 from her outside-final finish at the ISSF World Cup meet in Changwon, South Korea to fill in one of the Olympic berths reserved to the host nation.[1][5] Faka shot a decent 388 out of a possible 400 to tie for thirty-third place with Belgium's Daisy de Bock, Denmark's Ann Spejlsgaard, and Egypt's Shimaa Abdel-Latif in the qualifying round, failing to advance further to the final.[6][7]
