Howard Mildren

Howard Mildren was an Australian lawn bowls international who competed at the 1938 British Empire Games, the forerunner of the Commonwealth Games. There he won the silver medal in the pairs event, playing with Percy Hutton. The same year the pair won the Australian National Bowls Championships pairs title while bowling for the South Park Bowls Club in South Australia. Mildren was also a South Australian state champion in 1934 and again in 1951, the later title won while representing the Adelaide Bowls Club, which makes his playing record one that spans nearly two decades of competitive bowls in his home state.
