Kayleigh Haggo Switches from Frame Running to Boccia, Eyes Paris 2024

In 2022, Kayleigh Haggo’s world came crashing down and her Paralympic hopes were all but ended.

Kayleigh held 6 world records in frame running, a big medal haul at Paris 2024 looked achievable. But she was devastated to find out her sport would not be included in the Games.

She wouldn’t let her Paralympic dream die however. She made the switch to boccia and incredibly, after just two years in the sport, was selected for Paris.

At the link in our bio, our athlete partner for July explains how she has come through the challenges of switching sport at the elite level.
