Sam Ingram
Sam comes from that fantastic cathedral city,
Of majestic Coventry where there’s reconciliation,
Of people’s of different wartime allegiances,
For a brotherhood and forgiveness attestation;
He is partially sighted, born 1985 in the 80s mighty,
Went to Alderman Callow school, no compliances,
So he moved to specialist school Exhall Grange,
Had the purple house named after him for Judo,
Which his brother got him into for his range,
After broadcasting at Falmouth University to go;
He got silver at the 2007 Worlds, then again in 2010,
Bronze at the 2008 Paras, gold 2011, the Euro pen.
Sam came second in the 2012 Paralympics,
Third at the Euro 2015 Portugal Championships.
