Precision Sports

Chris Blake is a Welsh international bowler who has played both the outdoor and the indoor game, in which players roll weighted bowls as close as they can to a small target ball called the jack. His best international result was a silver medal in the fours at the 1996 World Outdoor Bowls Championship, held in Adelaide. At home he bowled for Cardiff Bowls Club and won the triples title at the Welsh National Bowls Championships in 1994 and the pairs title in 2001. Between those two Welsh wins he also became a British champion by taking the triples title at the 1995 British Isles Bowls Championships.
