Kyle enjoyed an impressive 2024–25 season with standout performances at local, regional, and international levels in wheelchair racing. Internationally, he represented his country at the Cork City Games (4th in 800m) and won silver in the 800m at the Diamond League in Poland. His 10K time of 24:57 at the Jedburgh Running Festival placed him 4th fastest in the UK in 2024. At the Stoke Mandeville Games (BWAA Grand Prix), Kyle earned multiple podium finishes across five events, setting personal bests in the 100m and 800m. Domestically, he secured several 1st-place finishes at the Red Star Games and Coventry Spring Meet. Kyle continues to train and compete, with more events planned, building on an already outstanding season.

Over the 2024/25 season, Richard has excelled both as a competitive swimmer and as a leader in inclusive sport. Representing Port Glasgow Otters at regional and national events, he consistently trains independently to stay competition-ready and achieve personal bests. Beyond the pool, Richard volunteers weekly at Otters’ family sessions, supporting swimmers with diverse needs and acting as a patient, encouraging role model. His standout achievement this year was “The Otterly Long Swim” — a 12-hour, 17.5-mile swim at Gourock Pool to raise funds for the club. Richard’s effort raised £1,500 of the £2,200 total, helping secure the club’s finances. His dedication, leadership, and inclusive spirit make him a powerful ambassador for community sport and a true inspiration.
