Albert Barakeina

Precision Sports

Albert Barakeina, born in 1948, is a former international lawn bowler who represented Papua New Guinea. Lawn bowls is a precision sport in which players deliver weighted balls along a green so that they finish as close as possible to a small white jack, and Barakeina took part at the highest regional level for his country. He represented Papua New Guinea at the Commonwealth Games, competing in the pairs event at the 1998 Commonwealth Games. Earlier, at the 1995 Asia Pacific Bowls Championships in Dunedin, he won a bronze medal in the pairs with his partner Martin Seeto. The record available for him is short, and it centres on these two pairs appearances for Papua New Guinea in the 1990s.
