Ashley
Mackenzie is one of Britain’s
most promising chances of a gold at London 2012, so why are the British judo
squad threatening to drop him from the team?
Ashley may
have won three gold medals in 2010 alone but he also suffers with severe ADHD
which has seen him get into some serious trouble many times in the past. This is
Ashley’s last chance, having been banned from the British judo squad a
staggering four times for misconduct.
In a bid to
secure his place at this summer’s Olympic Games, the bright, young athlete
leaves his home town and his mother behind to move in with a tough, no-nonsense
ex-Olympian coach who is tasked with harnessing Ashley’s undeniable talent and
helping him control his ADHD.
He has six
months to prove himself-will we see him compete at London 2012 or will his bad
behaviour get the better of him?
