 Paddy Bermingham, a Garda from County Clare, competed in the discus; the Commonwealth Games Federation lists him under "Northern Ireland", while Bob Phillips lists him under "IFS" (Irish Free State).The lawn bowls team was described as "Ireland" in reports of its selection, on the scoreboard, and in reports of its results.It was selected by the Irish Bowling Association, an all-island governing body, but the team members' clubs (Larne, Cavehill, and Shaftesbury) were all in Northern Ireland, the heartland of the sport in Ireland, and its results have retrospectively been credited to Northern Ireland.
