Leslie Statham (aka Arnold Steck) (18th December 1905 - 28th April 1974) was an English arranger and composer. Statham was born in Solihull. He was initially a soldier in the Welsh Guards regiment of the British Army playing in the Welsh Guards Band, and was occasionally given to performing as a soloist outside of his military career. Arnold Steck composed 'Sporting Occasion' which was used by the BBC TV for the Wimbledon closing titles. This arrangement for orchestra was made by George Pollen.
