Bio

Patrick first got into boccia through a regional come-and-try multi-sport event. As a 15 year old, it took a while for Patrick to get into the game but after realising he was pretty good at the sport he joined a club in Edinburgh, where he started to get to grips with the intricacies of the game and gain a greater tactical understanding of the sport.

After weekly training sessions, Patrick’s coach suggested he enter a competition and Patrick went on to win gold at the Scottish Championships. With his competitive interest spiked, Patrick has progressed to international competition, winning silver in the BC3 pairs at the 2014 World Championships and beating the World number 2 in competition at the World Open earlier this year.

Patrick made his ParalympicsGB debut at Rio 2016 but the BC3 Pair didn’t get beyond the Pool stage winning one of their three matches.

The BC3 Pair of Patrick, Jamie McCowan and Scott McCowan claimed Silver medals at the 2017 BISFed European Championships, held in Povoa de Varzim, Portugal.

Patrick saw a return to winning ways in 2023, securing silver at the Fortaleza World Cup.
