Fred Biggin

Precision Sports

Frederick Biggin (16 February 1869 to 30 September 1968) was an English international lawn bowls player who competed at the 1934 British Empire Games. At that Games he won the gold medal in the rinks, or fours, event, alongside Robert Slater, Ernie Gudgeon and Percy Tomlinson. At home he was the Surrey singles champion and a member of the Temple Bowls Club. By trade he worked in insurance and he lived in West Norwood. He lived to the age of 99, and his entry rests on a short article that records his Games result, his Surrey title and his club membership.
