Val Stead

Valerie Stead is a former international lawn bowler who represented the island of Jersey. In 1995 she won the triples bronze medal at the Atlantic Bowls Championships, partnering Denise Falkner and Jean Jones. She also represented Jersey at the Commonwealth Games, competing in the singles at the 1994 Commonwealth Games. The sources available give no birth date and no club career, so this entry rests on her international bowls record alone: a team medal at the Atlantic championships and an appearance in the singles at the 1994 Commonwealth Games. Lawn bowls is a precision sport in which players roll biased balls towards a small target ball.
