Charles Bradley

Charles Stewart Bradley, born in 1919, is a South African-born former international lawn bowler who competed for Rhodesia. He won a bronze medal in the fours at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, playing with Alex Pascoe, Basil Wells and Ronnie Turner. Four years later he won a second bronze medal, this time in the pairs at the 1962 Commonwealth Games, partnering Bill Jackson. His son Alan Bradley was also a Rhodesian international bowler, so bowls ran in the family. By trade he was a farmer, and his two Commonwealth Games medals mark him as one of the notable Rhodesian bowlers of his era.
