Alexandra Rickman
Alexandra sails a SKUD 18 alongside Niki Birrell,
In a sailing 1-person keelboat, a successful pair,
They’ve won many a para World Champ. title,
Silver or gold from 2013 to 2015, with lots of dare.
With these Worlds they've been to Australia,
Canada, Miami, Weymouth & Portland, Ireland,
And in 2012 at London’s call they had vigour,
Because they took the bronze for their hand.
They matched this win with a bronze in Rio,
When both were “elated” at their spot, place;
Alexandra has a degree in sciences natural,
From the University of Bath which is just ace.
