Dorothy Barr

Precision Sports

Dorothy Barr is a former international lawn bowler from Scotland who competed at the Commonwealth Games. She represented the Scottish team at the 1994 Commonwealth Games in Victoria, Canada, where she took part in the fours event. At those Games she won a bronze medal in the fours alongside her teammates Betty Forsyth, Elizabeth Dickson and Janice Maxwell. Lawn bowls is a precision sport in which players roll biased bowls towards a small target ball. The English Wikipedia article gives no birth date or later career details for her, so this entry records only her nationality, her sport and her bronze medal at the 1994 Games, and leaves her birth year and other honours open until a further source states them.
