Martin Hickman

Martin works at a KFC in Glasgow, where he’s from, And so plays football on their team. Internationally, He’s played in three major tournaments, not a con, Because he’s on the Scotland team unequivocally. He played at school but was discriminated against, So picked up disability football to make a go of it, Therapy improved his agility greatly, he did persist, ‘Cos on the pitch he lacks the control others pit. He was playing on a disabled placement scheme, When a coach duly noticed him, asking for interest, So he enlisted in the GB and in the Scotland team, Making his Paralympian debut at Rio: 5th to chest.
