John Henderson

John Henderson, born around 1908 and known to have been alive after 1976, was a Canadian international lawn bowler. He took part in the first World Bowls Championship, held at Kyeemagh in New South Wales, Australia, in 1966, where he was captain of the Canadian side and won a silver medal in the triples with Karl Beacom and Sandy Houston. Away from the green he served as vice-president of the Canadian Lawn Bowls Council and in 1976 was elected President of the International Bowling Board, the body that then governed the sport internationally. The available source gives only an approximate birth year and no date of death, so this entry records his championship result and his two administrative offices and goes no further than the page supports.
