Medals Galore in Italy

The British Para Team leave the city of Lignano with a bag of medals to accompany them

From a Welsh perspective Rob Davies, Josh Stacey, Paul Karabardack, Tom Matthews, and Paul Davies were in action.

In the individuals it was Rob Davies who took Gold (SM1), reversing some of his loses at the World Championships last year to his rivals. Josh Stacey (SM9) lost in the final so added to the overall tally with a great Silver Medal. Paul Karabardack (SM6) and Tom Matthews (SM1) just missed out on a medal and lost in the Q-Finals respectively.

In the team events Josh combined with Ashley Facey Thompson & Kim Daybell to win Gold in the TM10 event. Paul combined with Martin Perry & Dave Wetherill in TM6 to gain top spot once again to add this to their European Golds.

Tom, Rob and Paul (TM1) lost out on count back in their tough group to halt progress to the medal matches.
