Leslie Brown

Precision Sports

Leslie G Brown was a Fijian lawn bowls international who competed in the 1950 British Empire Games, the multi-sport event now known as the Commonwealth Games. Lawn bowls is a precision sport in which players roll weighted, biased bowls along a green and try to finish closest to a small white target ball called the jack. At those 1950 Games Brown won the bronze medal in the pairs event, partnering James Poulton, so each side was a team of two bowling in turn. The available source records that Games appearance and medal as the substance of his career and gives no birth or death dates, so none are stated here.
