John Cavanagh (archer)

Precision Sports

John Cavanagh, born on 21 July 1956 in London, is a disabled British archer. He won gold in the men's W1 individual compound event at the 2004 Summer Paralympics and silver in the same event at the 2008 Summer Paralympics. His English Wikipedia article is very short and gives only these results and his birth details, so this entry records what it states and nothing beyond it. His birth place is London, and his Paralympic record on the page comprises the 2004 gold and the 2008 silver, both in the W1 compound class for archers who use wheelchairs.
