Churchill Bowl - History

History

The Churchill Bowl was originally created for the Canadian University football invitational competition in the late 1950s and 1960s. With the advent of the Vanier Cup, the Churchill Bowl game was discontinued. From 1968 to 1988 one of the national semi-final games was variously named Western Bowl, Forest City Bowl, Central Bowl.

In 1989, the CIAU requested and were given permission by the trustees of the trophy to reinstate the award for annual presentation to the winner of the National semi-final game, the Churchill Bowl. In 2003, the Churchill Bowl was renamed the Uteck Bowl in honour of Larry Uteck.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    We are told that men protect us; that they are generous, even chivalric in their protection. Gentlemen, if your protectors were women, and they took all your property and your children, and paid you half as much for your work, though as well or better done than your own, would you think much of the chivalry which permitted you to sit in street-cars and picked up your pocket- handkerchief?
    Mary B. Clay, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 3, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    All history is a record of the power of minorities, and of minorities of one.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A people without history
    Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
    Of timeless moments.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
