Bill Tancred

William Raymond "Bill" Tancred (born 6 August 1942〔()〕) is a leading sports administrator, academic and former international athlete. He competed at the 1968 and 1972 Summer Olympics in the discus and won a bronze and silver medals in successive Commonwealth Games from 1970 to 1974.〔(Sporting heroes.net Commonwealth Games 1978 results )〕 He was the British National discus champion on seven occasions and held the British record for 25 years his personal best being 64.94m in 1974.〔 He also competed in the shot put and remains one of the top ten British shot putters.〔(GBR athletics UNITED KINGDOM ALL-TIME LISTS - MEN )〕 Athleticsweekly.com has ranked Tancred as the greatest British discus thrower of all-time by virtue of his long reign as British record-holder and profusion of AAA titles.〔





==Early life==
Bill Tancred was born in Quetta, Balochistan, Pakistan,〔(Profile at sports-reference.com )〕 and grew up in Felixstowe.〔 He was one of a number of siblings, one of his younger brothers being the athlete and strongman Pete Tancred. As a school boy, the javelin was his main event but he developed elbow trouble and was forced to abandon this event. His father, Adrian,〔(UK ALL-TIME RANKINGS ''Top spot for Capes and Tancred'', MEL WATMAN rates the top British shot and discus throwers of all time, according to championship and record performances )〕 believed that this was not a barrier to athletics in another discipline and Bill took up the discus in which his father coached him. After the family moved to Ipswich from Felixstowe he would find roads with adjoining fields to throw into and would often lose the discus in long grass. His father would get him to read books on the subject as well, to hone the technique, a discipline not used widely in the 1950s. His father would also improvise with equipment if none were available. He joined Ipswich Harriers and trained at the Ipswich Town training ground. This gave him opportunities for competition within the county and also in the Eastern Counties framework.
