Jim Kerr was a Scottish international lawn bowler who competed at the British Empire and Commonwealth Games, now known as the Commonwealth Games. He bowled for the Merchiston Edinburgh Bowling Club and, with club partner David Smart, won the district finals to qualify for the 1956 Scottish National Bowls Championships, where the pair then took the national pairs title. Two years later he was chosen for the Scottish team at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, Wales, and again played the pairs event with David Smart. In 1961 he was still playing actively and represented Edinburgh and Leith at regional level.
