Precision Sports

Johan Jacobs is a Namibian international lawn bowler who has represented his country at continental and world level. His best known result came at the 2019 Atlantic Bowls Championships, where he won a bronze medal in the triples alongside Piet Appollis and Willem Esterhuizen. Namibia then selected him as part of its five man squad for the 2020 World Outdoor Bowls Championship, the sport's leading international event, although that tournament was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. He was chosen again for the Namibian team at the 2023 World Outdoor Bowls Championship, where he took part in the men's triples and the men's fours events. His record places him among the Namibian bowlers who have competed on the world stage in the modern era.
