GBWR would like to congratulate Simon Starr on being selected as Head Table Official for the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio.

Starr (pictured above) has also taken the decision to step down from his role with Sport Nottinghamshire, leading into semi-retirement, with wheelchair rugby to become Simon’s main focus.

He said: “I’m hugely excited, it’s a huge honour and a privilege to have been selected and I hope to represent GB to the best of my ability.”

“Being head official brings a lot of responsibility and it is a challenging role but I look forward to the challenge.”
