Among the squad of junior para sports participants in Fife who have enjoyed a successful year, Cameron Adam from Dunfermline is up there with the best. Since moving to Fife AC and teaming up with coach Steve Doig, Cameron has gone from strength to strength. Cameron has a very positive approach to training and has slotted in perfectly to his Fife Athletic Club training group. Steve is pleased with Cameron’s progress in his first year as a Fife AC member and believes he has the essential qualities to develop as a sprinter and thrower. Cameron’s sense of humour and determination are worthy of special mention.
This past season Cameron has produced a series of personal bests and added 200 metres to his list of favoured events. Cameron is working hard on his winter programme with Steve and continuing to inspire and support the younger members of the DSF Thursday run, jump and throws session at Pitreavie Athletics Centre.
Cameron competes in the T37 class and may even consider following in the footsteps of his Fife team mate Connor Brown and compete in cross country. Cameron and Connor are members of the Fife Sportshall Athletics team that won the National Team title earlier in the year.
Disability Sport Fife has an ever increasing group of young Para sports participants with physical, sensory or learning disabilities who have demonstrated they have the qualities to follow in the footsteps of great Fife Paralympians and Hall of Fame members of the past.
Cameron is fully aware that success only comes to those who commit totally to training and make the appropriate sacrifices associated with performance sport. Cameron has a very supportive family, a very positive attitude, a supportive inclusive coach and membership of an excellent athletics club. The basics are all in place now watch this space….
