Champion Spotlight: Bray

This month’s Champion Spotlight focuses on beloved Champion, Bray Aquino. Bray debuted internationally at the Special Olympics World Games in Berlin in June 2023, after six months of rigorous training, overcoming a hamstring injury just before the event.

He excelled in athletics, securing 6th place in the 200m run (26.05s) and clinching gold in the 100m with a personal best time of 12.84s. Unfortunately, his relay team was disqualified. He’s been playing Try Time Football with Wentworthville United since age 15, mainly against able-bodied teams who facilitate wins for them.

Bray is now focusing on basketball and athletics for upcoming Special Olympics events. He also completed his Automotive Apprenticeship in February, securing continued employment with his company.
