Description
Christopher Lockley "Chris" Lewis is a former Australian rules footballer who played over 200 AFL senior games for the West Coast Eagles.
An indigenous Australian, Lewis is one of the sons of Irwin Lewis, a notable scholar, sportsman, public servant, and indigenous Australian artist. Like his father and older brothers Clayton and Cameron, he attended Christ Church Grammar School, one of the elite independent schools in Western Australia, for his secondary education, and later played Australian rules football for the Claremont Football Club in the West Australian Football League.
At the time Lewis attended Christ Church, the school apparently did not allow Year 10 students to play in the First XVIII football team. However, Lewis' ability meant that an exception was made in his case. He was also a very good cricketer whilst at Christ Church.
In 1990, he won the West Coast Eagles Club Champion Award. He was a member of the 1992 and 1994 WCE premiership teams, as well as the 1996 Claremont premiership team in the WAFL.
In 2006 Lewis was named as half forward flanker in the Eagles' 20th anniversary team.
