Sara Head

Sara played basketball in squad ParalympicsGB, At Euros, at Worlds and at Commonwealth Games, In Manchester and in Melbourne, and had TT victory, At the Paralympics in London with her team-mate. Her boyfriend introduced her to table tennis nifty, And she’s a paralytic, from a virus at the age of 15, “Meeting people in the same situation as [myself] was a real eye-opener…it opened up my life again.“ In 2013 Sara and Jane Campbell took the gold, In the team event class 1-3 in Bayreuth, Germany, And then she won bronze for herself in the singles, To ride right onto 2 bronzes in Slovenia, Slovakia. Illness and surgery were then her disappointing lot, But she returned in the Lignano Master Open 2016, To win a fine silver for the team. In Rio, the quarters, For both singles and team matches. Born 12/04/1990.
