Robert Donald
Robert is a student at Nottingham University and trains / plays with Sean O’Sullivan who also has an upper limb deficiency, pure coincidence that they met at uni! Robert joined his first club aged 13/14, and played under the coach Philip Grey. Philip also coached para badminton, wheelchair player Gobi Ranganathan, both of which are huge inspirations for Robert. Covid stopped Robert competing in Spain earlier in the year, hopefully next year the return of internationals will see further achievements for Robert and his teammate.
