Maldwyn Evans
Maldwyn Lewis Evans (8 November 1937 – 30 December 2009), often known as "Mal" Evans, was a Welsh bowls champion, who won the World Championship in 1972.〔(Dictionary of Welsh Biography )〕 He is the only Welshman ever to have held the title.〔(Wales Online: "Bowls: World champ Maldwyn Evans dies", 7 January 2010. Accessed 19 December 2012 )〕
Evans was born in Gelli, Rhondda. His father won the Welsh Pairs Championship in 1952 with his brother (Maldwyn's uncle) John Morgan Evans (1917-1985), a world-class player. Maldwyn Evans was educated at Pentre Secondary School and later obtained a degree in history from University College of North Wales Bangor. He worked as a teacher in Swansea, Porth, Tonypandy〔(Wales Online: "People and places that helped shape the Tonypandy we know today", 11 Jan 2007. Accessed 19 December 2012 )〕 and Ferndale.
Evans played bowls for Wales from 1967 until 1985, and was a member of the Gelli Park club.〔(Ystradfechan Bowls Club: A potted history of Rhondda bowls & Rhondda bowling greens both past & present )〕 He won the Gibson-Watt Welsh Open Singles at Llandrindod Wells three times (1964, 1966 and 1967), and the Welsh Pairs Championship twice (1966 and 1967) with his brother Gwyn. Following his world championship success, he won a bronze medal as part of the Welsh team at the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Edmonton, Canada. He won the Welsh indoor singles title in 1978, and captained the Welsh team in the world championship in Melbourne in 1980.
