Vimla Swamy

Precision Sports

Vimla Swamy, born in 1941, is a former Fijian international lawn bowler who represented Fiji at the Commonwealth Games and in regional bowls championships. She played in the fours event at the 1998 Commonwealth Games, the major multi-sport stage for her sport. Her strongest results came at the Asia Pacific Bowls Championships, where she won three medals, including two golds: the pairs title at Suva in 1989 and the fours title at Kowloon in 1991. Her record shows a bowler from a Pacific nation competing successfully against the stronger lawn bowls countries of the region over the course of the late 1980s and 1990s, at a time when bowls was an established part of Commonwealth sport in Fiji. The sourced record of her career is brief, and little is documented about her club or personal life.
