George Watson

Precision Sports

George Watson was a lawn bowls international from Northern Ireland who competed at the British Empire Games, now known as the Commonwealth Games. The English Wikipedia article read for this entry says Watson was in the Northern Irish team at the 1934 British Empire Games in London, playing the rinks, or fours, event with Cecil Curran, Charlie Clawson and Percy Watson, and that the four won the silver medal. Watson captained Ireland, later moved to England and was playing for Middlesex Bowling Club in 1957. Birth and death years, gender and club details are not given in that source, so those parts of the entry remain open until another page can state them.
