Len Hill was a Welsh lawn bowler from the Port Talbot Municipal club who competed at the Commonwealth Games. He won the rinks, or fours, title at the Welsh National Bowls Championships in 1937, 1939 and 1941, and he won the pairs title with J. Miles before later partnering Jack Griffiths, with whom he reached the pairs final in 1943 and 1950 and won a second pairs title in 1957. He made his debut for Wales in 1937. In 1957 he was also in the fours with Evan Jones, Danny Prosser and Jack Griffiths that won the national title, which led to his selection for the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, where he bowled in the fours and Wales finished seventh. In 1962 he was again part of the Port Talbot Municipal rinks team that won the Welsh national championship.
