The England team pulled off a sensation defeating the World Champions Hungary 7-2 in the league. In his three matches, Bull defeated the defending champion Roland Jacobi, and Zoltán Mechlovits and Laszlo Bellak who would play the singles final in 1928. In the three-way play-off to decide the medals, England lost to Austria and Hungary after Fred Perry twisted his ankle. Bull again defeated Mechlovits but lost to Bellak. Bull won a silver in 1931, and another bronze in 1929 with the England team. With Perry, Bull won a silver in men's doubles in 1928. Perry would go on to win three Wimbledon tennis singles titles in the 1930s. Bull also won bronzes in 1928 and 1932 for mixed doubles and men's doubles respectively. The Prague tournament of 1932 was the last time he represented England in table tennis.
