Athlete Resume
Louis is a wheelchair athlete who competes in the T33 category. Last year he was crowned 100m, 200m and 400m national champion and broke three European records. He qualified for the 2011 IWAS World Junior Championships in April and travelled out to Dubai with the GB team, finishing an excellent fourth in the 400m and fifth over 200m.
