一.条款内容

John Graham Chambers was one of the most influential and significant figures in the field of late Victorian sporting and social life - British as well as Welsh - and yet, these days, very few people have ever heard of him.

Born in Llanelli on 12 February 1843, he was the son of William Chambers, a wealthy and respected local landowner. As a young man John Chambers went to Eton for his basic education and then moved on to Trinity College, Cambridge. At Cambridge he excelled at rowing and was a leading light in the founding of inter varsity sporting contests and rowed twice in the annual Boat Race with Oxford, in 1862 and 1863. Unfortunately he was in the losing crew on both occasions.

He was interested in far more than just rowing, however. In 1866 Chambers was the founder of the Amateur Athletics Club (later known as the Amateur Athletics Association) and became their president in 1880.

He is the man who is credited with drafting the Marquess of Queensberry rules for boxing. These included the compulsory use of gloves in the ring, the introduction of the 10 count for fighters who had been knocked down and the system of three-minute rounds. His achievement in creating these rules was so significant that he was later inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame.

In 1872 Chambers was the driving force in the creation and staging of the first Football Association Cup Final. As if all that was not enough, he was the English walking champion and instigated championships in sports as varied as billiards, cycling, boxing, wrestling and athletics. When Matthew Webb became the first man to swim the English Channel in 1875, Chambers was there with him, rowing beside him as he swam.

John Graham Chambers died on 4 March 1883 at the early age of 40. His life may have been short but it was packed full of achievement and one can only wonder what else this amazing Welshman would have done had he been given a little longer on the planet.
