Personal life

Evans was born in Gelli, Rhondda. His father won the Welsh Pairs Championship in 1952 with his brother (Gwyn's uncle) John Morgan Evans (1917-1985), a world-class player. Gwyn worked as a chartered public finance accountant and chief executive of Rhondda Borough Council until his retirement.[3]

His brother was Maldwyn Evans, the 1972 World Outdoor Bowls Championship gold medal winner.

He won a bronze medal in the men's fours at the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Edmonton with Ellis Stanbury, Ian Sutherland and John Thomson.[4]

He represented Wales from 1967 until 1985, won the Welsh indoor singles title in 1978, and captained the Welsh team in the 1980 World Outdoor Bowls Championship in Melbourne.[5]
