Pāpāmoa College Para-sprinter breaks NZ record

PC Sport —

Year 11 student Jaxon Woolley is celebrating a huge achievement after breaking his own current New Zealand record in the T38 classification for 100m.

This record stands now not only for his current age group of U17, but it also is the new record for U20 and Open men's, says Jaxon’s mum Tash Bowden.

"It’s a huge achievement"

Jaxon, who has been competing for about three years as a sprinter after being scouted by para-athlete Keegan Pitcher, has a rare condition called Polymicrogyria.

Congratulations Jaxson, we cant wait to see what the future holds for you.
