Après sa victoire en coupe du Monde, son titre de Vice-champion d’Europe, c’est à Rio qu’il a vécu une aventure sportive extraordinaire. Jamais un sportif licencié à Souffelweyersheim n’avait réussi à se qualifier pour les Jeux Olym- piques (JO). Retour sur cette aventure où il terminera à la 6ème place. « Être qualifié pour les JO, c’est vraiment l’aboutissement de toute une carrière. Sur place, à Rio, l’aventure a été exceptionnelle ! Dans cette compétition, tout est tellement exacerbé, la dimension, l’envie d’aller le plus loin, les médias… Les résultats de ces derniers mois m'avaient donné le goût des podiums et suscitaient de l'espoir et de l'ambition pour ces JO. Je suis donc forcément un peu déçu d'avoir calé en quart de finale mais je suis fier de mon parcours durant cette olympiade ! C'était déjà un rêve de pouvoir participer aux Jeux Olympiques et j'ai eu le plaisir de pouvoir les dis- puter avec la posture d'un prétendant au titre. Je me suis bien préparé et j'étais prêt à aller au bout de moi-même. Je pense avoir donné le maximum et mis tout mon engagement dans cette aven- ture.

  • Scottish Disability Sport - the First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword
    Scottish Disability Sport - The First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword I was delighted to be asked by Chief Executive Gavin Macleod to record the first fifty years of Scottish Disability Sport, to mark the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Association. Initially the project was intended to be small but the more I researched, the more it brought back memories of great athletes, superb volunteers and great times. I became determined to try and do justice to as many as those great people as possible. I am certain I shall have forgotten key people in the eyes of others and if so I apologise profusely. For almost four decades SDS has been for me a way of life. The volunteers I have had the pleasure of working with for almost three decades are those I remember with great fondness, particularly during the early years. I applaud the many athletes who contributed to the rich history and success of SDS over fifty years. Outstanding volunteers like Bob Mitchell, Mary Urquhart, David Thomson, Jean Stone, Chris Cohen and Colin Rains helped to develop and sustain my passion for disability sport. I have been privileged to work with exceptional professionals like Ken Hutchison, Derek Casey, Liz Dendy, Paul Bush, Bob Price, Louise Martin, Sheila Dobie, Fiona Reid, Eddie McConnell, Gavin MacLeod, Mary Alison, Heather Lowden, Lawrie Randak, Tracey McCillen, Archie Cameron and many others whose commitment to inclusive sport has been obvious and long lasting. I thank Jean Stone, Jacqueline Lynn, Heather Lowden, Maureen Brickley and Paul Noble who acted as “readers” during the writing of the history and Norma Buchanan for administrative support at important stages.
