George Hill Award - Team of the Year
The team of the Year Award honours George Hill’s outstanding commitment to Cambridge minor sports. George, owner of the Hill Cartage Co always gave back to his community whether by sponsoring underprivileged youngsters in participating in organized sport or through his volunteering in a variety of roles. His involvement included hockey, baseball and ringette in roles such as umpire, referee, convenor, driver, equipment manager and truck provider for team mobile headquarters.
Not only was he instrumental in helping form the Cambridge Football League, but he also lead Cambridge’s first ringette team in qualifying for the Provincial Championships. A loyal Cambridge
Winterhawks fan, George’s need for self-improvement helped him obtain the Level 5 OHA Coaching Certificate.
George was very appreciative of the support provided by his wife Barbara and his children Susan, Steve, Sandra and John and their families.
