Frank Livingstone

Precision Sports

Frank Livingstone (1 August 1886 to 17 August 1966) was a New Zealand lawn bowls player who bowled for the Onehunga Bowls Club. At the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney he won the silver medal in the men's singles. On the home circuit he won the New Zealand National Bowls Championships singles titles in 1936 and 1952, the pairs in 1949 and 1962 and the fours in 1940 and 1948, and he also took the Australian National Bowls Championships singles title in 1949. His career therefore stretched across more than a quarter of a century of national competition. He died on 17 August 1966 and was buried at Waikaraka Cemetery in Onehunga, and in 2013 he was an inaugural inductee into the Bowls New Zealand Hall of Fame.
