Stephen Thomas

Stephen used to have sprinter Richard Whitehead, As a team member when he did play ice hockey, Before he became a sonar sailor, the water to wed, In disability sport, the key was his sporting degree. He played for the under 18 Wales rugby union team, Because he lives in Bridgend, from Ogmore Valley, Then he contracted meningoccal septicaemia, deem, ‘Cos this amputated his legs to make everything ok. His ice hockey team did well coming third in Turin, And in Athens at the World’s his team got a bronze, Then in Beijing they came sixth in that hot condition, But was disappointed at London by penalty neons.
