Joshua Rowe
Boccia player Joshua Rowe has Cerebral Palsy,
Comes from Scotland’s Perth, trains in Sterling,
Where there’s first class facilities at their Uni:
He was born on 21st April 1994 totally springing.
When he was thirteen he participated in a camp,
A Scottish Disability Sports Summer Camp hot,
Where he found the sport of boccia - not damp:
He was fast tracked, a place on TeamGB he got.
He won most championships in Scotland straight,
And went on to win the British Championships,
Winning one silver and three bronzes, his gate,
To the Europeans, Worlds, and the Paralympics.
In 2013 he struck gold to win the 2013 Euros,
Which were held in Guimaraes in Portugal;
In the 2014 Worlds he won a bronze to pose,
Then won gold at the Euros 2015, he did all.
