John Cavanagh

John Cavanagh is thought to be, The most respectable man in archery, He fell down a cliff in Switzerland, And now shoots a compound bow, hand. He was born the 21st July in 1956, His Para classification W1 sticks, Stoke Mandeville gave him the sport, And he is of a very quiet report. Picked for the British team in 1995, He took part in the Euros, a hive, He’s already been to four Paralympics, Won top spot in Athens, from the mix. 2008 Beijing, he took silver, Was part of the London quiver, So he’s going to Rio de Janeiro, Because he has lots of memento. John lives in Wandsworth, London, His original place of birth, it’s fun, He has a Botany BSc from Imperial, And a Msc in IT from Kingston regal. He trains with Maiden Bowmen, At Royal Richmond, it’s the den, And says his hero is everyone, With the drive to win, overcome.
