Owen Burke

Lives there but trains in Stoke Mandeville,
In Buckinghamshire, the Aylesbury stadium:
He was born on 30 November 1975, will.
In December 2012 after the Paras, London,
He went to a ParalympicsGB Sports Fest,
Where he discovered that his fiery ambition,
Was shooting, so joined a club in a quest.
He’s competed an many IPC World Cups,
His best finish is 5th spot, a fine placement,
Which happened at Fort Benning, run-ups,
An army training base in the USA cogent.
Through this qualified for Rio’s Games,
And enjoys photography, wood carving,
Quad biking, badminton and he names,
Archery, it’s synchronous with shooting.
