James Ball
James is a former sprinter, visually impaired,
Who suffered disappointment at exclusion,
From the 2012 games because he procured,
A grade three hamstring injury of dissociation.
But he keep going until 2015 though distraught,
So he entered the sporting discipline of cycling,
And quickly made it onto a programme wrought,
For world class sports people who are angling.
He’s Welsh, born on 24th June in the year 1991,
And comes from Ponthir but lives in Manchester.
His pilot can be Craig MacLean: in the tandem
Sprint 2016 Worlds he won bronze - a stormer.
