ARA Paralympic Rowing Coverage

James makes up one half of the TA2x with Karen Cromie. James started rowing in 2006 and is now in his third season of racing. A talented overall sportsman, he also enjoys swimming, karate, taekwondo and ten-pin bowling.

Legs, Trunks and Arms Mixed Four

The LTA4+ must contain two men and two women plus a cox who may be either sex and does not require an adaptive classification. This is the only event that the visually impaired may row and anyone rowing with this classification must row wearing goggles which completely block out light from their eyes.

Previous Success

Great Britain has a strong heritage in the Paralympic Games, not only because they founded the Games but also because we have always finished high in the medals table. GB have never finished lower than 5th in the medal table and last time out in Athens, Great Britain finished second in the medal table behind China.
