Sandy Ruckstuhl

Sandy spent 37 years as President
of the Myers Riders Football club.
He saw sports for the values and
skills they teach young people and
for the opportunities it provides.

Sandy endeavoured to make sports
accessible to all. He made it clear
that no kid that had a desire to
play would ever be turned away,
even if they were unable to afford
it. He was a pillar in the football
community, whose vision shaped
amateur football in Canada.

Sandy Ruckstuhl

Ces terrains sont nommés en
reconnaissance des services
communautaires exceptionnels
rendus par Sandy.

Sandy a été président de Myers
Riders Football club pendant 37 ans.
Selon lui, le sport était source de
valeurs et de compétences pour
les jeunes, tout en leur offrant des
perspectives d’avenir.

Sandy s’est efforcé de rendre le sport
accessible à tous et a toujours insisté
sur le fait qu’on ne refuserait jamais
un jeune qui a envie de jouer, mais
n’en a pas les moyens. Véritable pilier
de la communauté du football, sa
vision a façonné le football
amateur canadien.
