Poem

Stephen is the most successful boccia player, 
In the class BC4, he has muscular dystrophy, 
He often competes alongside Peter his brother, 
To do his best to succeed and secure victory. 

He’s been Scottish champion seven times, 
Being born in Bellshill in North Lanarkshire, 
On the 18th of August in 1984, disco times, 
But thru training is now an Hamilton squire.

He’s nine-times British champion, world no. 2,
And with Peter he won gold at the 2009 Euros,
In Lisbon 2010 he took silver, and Norway too,
A silver, and then gold in the 2013 Paris Euros.

Also that year in 2013 he won another gold,
At Guimaraes in Portugal at more Europeans;
2015 saw him collect another silver strolled,
And at the Worlds in 2016 he had gold eons.

He trains hard every day in his home town, 
At the new University of West of Scotland;
Jacqueline Lynn and Jim Thomson, renown
In Scotland, train him to control his hand. 

Stephen supports Glasgow Celtic football club, 
And is proud to be an ambassador for MD UK,
“Boccia is continuing to grow, [it’s a huge hub], 
especially internationally. There are now, [ok],

50-odd countries that play. [UK numbers] 
have increased as well, and so there is a lot
of competition out there, [also the standards]
have improved, from when I started, a lot.“
