Thomas M Chambers was a Canadian international lawn bowls player who competed in the 1930 British Empire Games for Scotland. [1] [2]
At the 1930 British Empire Games he won the bronze medal in the rinks (fours) event with David Fraser, John Orr and William Campbell. [3] [4] [5]
Bizarrely, he won the medal for Scotland despite being Canadian because John Kennedy, a member of the Scottish rinks team, had died in the United States en route to Canada. The other teams agreed that Chambers could be a substitute even though he was not Scottish. [6]
David John Bryant was a three-times World (outdoors) singles bowls champion, a three-times World indoors singles champion and a four times Commonwealth Games singles gold medallist. He is generally considered to be the greatest bowler of all time, winning 19 World and Commonwealth gold medals in total.
The lawn bowls competition at the 1930 British Empire Games featured three events for men: a singles, pairs, and a rinks (fours) contest. The event was held at Gage Park.
