Logan Seymour, 10, who has defied odds by being picked for the English Kickboxing team after being told by doctors he would never be able to take part in competitive sport. A schoolboy who was born without a HEEL has defied doctors by becoming a champion KICKBOXER. Brave Logan Seymour has suffered from club foot since he was a baby but incredibly has no problem kicking his way to gold medals. The 10-year-old was born with his left foot turned in and upwards and had to have his leg in a splint and plaster from the age of just six-weeks-old. That was removed after six months but Logan was then given special shoes to wear and had daily physio from his mum to help push his foot back into place and form a heel. Doctors warned his devastated parents it was unlikely their son would ever play sport because of the condition - which is also known as talipes. But incredibly the youngster has now been picked to be part of the England kickboxing squad which will compete in the world championships in Portugal in November.
