FT Pipeline Systems has been sponsoring archer, Danielle Brown, as she prepares for the 2012 Paralympics in London. Last year, Danielle was named the Sunday Times Disabled Sportswoman of the Year and has a long list of achievements to her name with the highlight being winning a gold medal at the Beijing Paralympics in 2008.
Danielle shoots the compound bow and competes in the individual, disabled events, but is also a member of the able-bodied, women’s compound archery team, who won a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi last year. The women were the first English archers to win gold medals at a Commonwealth Games for 28 years. In between her training, Danielle found time to gain a first class law degree from Leicester University. Since completing her degree, she has become a full-time athlete. We wish her every success with her training for the games in London.
