Tom Aggar

Tom’s the longest-serving member, Of the British para-rowing squad, Because whilst at a party, thunder, He fell, slipped with all his quad. He played rugby for Warwick Uni, Because he lived for, loved sport, But Coventry’s hospital said he, Was paralysed, their true report. As part of his long rehabilitation, He took up rowing which he raved, And so grossed the competition, In Beijing 2008 which he engraved. He went from the 2007 Worlds - The World Rowing Championships, Where he won gold, short words, To opportune a gold in 2008 hips. In 2009, Portugal at the WRC’s, He took another gold medal fair, And again in 2010 he won the seas,  And yet again in 2011, he did heir. So in 2014 at the World Champs, He won a silver in Amsterdam, And in 2015 in France with amps, He took another silver gram. Tom was born 24th May in 1984, As an eighties discotheque child; He lives in Caversham, his door, Into the world of contests dialled.
