Swimming against the tide

Dave Malone refused to allow disability prevent him from becoming a world class swimmer. And now he is bringing his message to a new generation of Irish youngsters hungry for success.

He doesn’t get all this DIS stuff. As in DIS-ability. Dave Malone will actively diss that syllable DIS. All he sees when he sees the athletes he works with is ABILITY.

Often he doesn’t know whether they were born with some physical limitation, like he was, or if it came along later on literally by accident. What matters to him is how limitless their ability seems.
