Clara Decima Hamilton (née Norman), MBE (9 September 1909 – 29 August 1983) was an Australian athlete.
[2] Norman's improving times, and several victories in the WA state titles, prompted Preston to consider her to represent Australia in the 1934 Empire Games to be held in London.
Norman eventually managed to establish such a club and join the WAAAA, but too late for her to qualify for the 1934 Empire Games or even the 1936 Summer Olympics in Berlin.
Norman's performance in Melbourne qualified her to compete in the 1938 British Empire Games, to be held in Sydney.
She was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 1983 New Year Honours,[4] and was the custodian of the Commonwealth Games Baton in the same year, flying the Queen's Baton from London to the 1982 Commonwealth Games in Brisbane.
