Harold Joffre Tyrie (3 August 1915 – 22 February 2007) was a New Zealand track and field athlete who won a bronze medal at the 1938 British Empire Games. He also played representative rugby union for {{Rut Otago}}.

Early life and family

Born in Dunedin on 3 August 1915, Tyrie was the son of William Leslie Tyrie and Annie Tyrie (née Miller).[1][3] He was educated at Otago Boys' High School from 1929 to 1932.[2] On 27 September 1940, he married Phyllis Mary McClelland at St John's Church, Millers Flat,[3] and the couple went on to have three daughters.[4]

Athletics

Representing Otago, Tyrie won the New Zealand national 440 yards title three times: in 1936, 1939, and 1940.[5] At the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney, he finished sixth in the final of the men's 440 yards, and was a member of the New Zealand quartet in the men's 4 x 440 yards relay that won the bronze medal.[6]

He later turned to coaching, and trained athletes including Don Jowett and Robin Tait.

Rugby union

A second-row forward from the Southern Rugby Football Club in Dunedin,[7] Tyrie played two representative rugby union games for Otago, in 1938 and 1941.[2]

Military service

Tyrie graduated from the 12th Officer Cadet Training Unit in September 1942 and was commissioned as a temporary second lieutenant in the New Zealand Infantry.[8] Later, in 1944, with the rank of corporal, Tyrie was wounded in Italy while serving with the 2nd New Zealand Expeditionary Force.[9][10]

Later life and death

In later life, Tyrie was a ceramic artist of some note.[4][11] He died in Christchurch on 22 February 2007.[2]
