Scott Mccowan

Scott has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, And plays boccia on a wooden floor gleaming, Where he rolls the leather ball accurately, Down a ramp to hit the jack, and he’s beaming. His father quietly assists him to position his balls, Whilst his mother assists his brother Jamie, Upon whom Duchenne MD also falls and calls, Such that sport is enjoyed by the whole family. Scott has a BA with honours from Uni of Sterling, In psychology and sports studies all inclusive, Because he loves football which is encapsulating, American footy, golf, darts and snooker pensive. He started playing boccia way back in 2007, And represented GB at the Europeans in 2009, So in 2013 at the Europeans in Portugal, levin, He won the bronze in the BC3 pairs for his line. Then in 2014 at the World Champs. in Beijing, He again won as a pair the besought silver medal: “In every tournament I take part in, [when I fling], I want to win and this is no different [for me at all].”
