“Victoria has a wonderful sports history and sports tradition, said Bridge. To grow up here, and play sports here you learn this.
To now be included with some of the great names and personalities in Victoria and Canadian sport is a tremendous honour.”
The Greater Victoria Sports Hall of Fame has honoured more than 100 inductees. Worthy individuals and teams are nominated by a committee of the Board, which then votes with a three quarters approval required for induction.
