Laura Sugar

Laura was born with her foot at the wrong angle, Which is the condition of Talipes, but many ops, Corrected this, although she was left standing, With very little ankle movement. She loves sport. Through school she found hockey and in 2011, Playing in the indoor squad at the Europeans, She won, or her team won, a top silver medal, So she still has fond memories of the game. Indeed, Laura now competes in sprinting in T44, And has been known to take the long jump, 4.48m, And at the Euros in 2014 she won two bronzes, For the 100m, 200m: she outclassed the best. 2016 and Grosseto in Italy, Laura came second, In the 100m, and in the 200m she came third, Such that she won a place at Rio, taking a detour, By the World games just before in Doha 2015.
