James Thoms

Precision Sports

James Cockburn Thoms, born in 1869 with no recorded date of death, was a Scottish born, South African international lawn bowls player who competed in the 1930 British Empire Games and the 1934 British Empire Games. At the 1930 Games he won the silver medal in the singles. While in Scotland he lived at Edgemont Gardens, Langside, Glasgow. The source consulted records little else about his life, so this entry rests on that silver medal, his two Games appearances and his birth year.
