Wales' former Commonwealth Games shot put bronze medallist and ex-Olympian Shaun Pickering has died at the age of 62.
Pickering won bronze at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur having finished 27th in the shot put at the Atalanta Olympics in 1996.
He later became UK Athletics' national event coach for heavy throws.
"Our thoughts are with Shaun's friends & family at this sad time," Welsh Athletics said.
"Everyone at Welsh Athletics is sad to hear the news that 'Hall of Fame' inductee, multiple Welsh Champion & Record Holder Shaun Pickering has passed away,"
His father was the late BBC commentator and presenter Ron Pickering, who as Wales national coach coached Lynn Davies when he won Olympic long jump gold in 1964.
His mother Jean represented Great Britain at the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki and won gold in the long jump at the 1954 European Athletics Championships.
