A Piece Of Canadian Wrestling History
Ladies and Gentlemen......This document is from the 1966 Canadian National Championships that were held at the University of Alberta, it was the very first National Championships my father attended. The bout sheet shows his opponents and the results from each contest. We recovered this from my father's office, it was tucked away with his JJC and OSU newspaper clippings. Dad won his first National title 46 years ago at the young age of 18 and qualified to represent Canada at the British Empire Games (now known as the Commonwealth Games) and the World Cup. Dad almost didn't go to the BE Games and the World Cup......more of that story is in the book!!!
