Bill Moseley

Precision Sports

William Moseley, known as Bill Moseley, born in 1945, is a former South African international lawn bowler. He came to prominence at the 1976 World Outdoor Bowls Championship in Johannesburg, where he won gold in the pairs, the fours and the team event. In the pairs he partnered Doug Watson, and the pair won 13 of their 15 matches; in the fours he played with Kevin Campbell, Nando Gatti and Kelvin Lightfoot, and the team won 14 of 15. South Africa swept every event at those championships, but the sporting boycott of the apartheid era denied its bowlers further chances to win medals. Moseley had played bowls since the age of eight, reached his first national singles quarter final in 1970 and won the South African national fours in 1971.
