Claude Prosser Clegg (14 July 1913 – 25 September 1991) was a New Zealand javelin thrower, who represented his country at the 1950 British Empire Games.

Early life and family

Born in Opunake on 14 July 1913, Clegg was the son of Sydney Rosina May Prosser and her husband Samuel James Clegg.[1] In 1940, he married Jean Lorraine Bassett, and the couple went on to have two children.[1]

Athletics

Clegg won the New Zealand national javelin title five times: in 1936, 1938, 1947, 1948, and 1949.[2]

At the 1950 British Empire Games in Auckland, Clegg finished fifth in the men's javelin,[3] with a best throw of {{convert|175|ft|11|in|m|2|abbr=on}}.[4]

In later years, Clegg competed in masters athletics, and set a national record in the M70 javelin in 1985.[5]

Death

A retired headmaster, Clegg died on 25 September 1991, and was buried at Opunake Cemetery.[6]
