Granville Mayall - Builder

Mayall was an early pioneer of the sport of figure skating and his influence covered more than 40 years. Active with the Connaught Skating Club during the 1920’s, and as a judge and referee, he joined the Executive of the CFSA in 1950, going on to serve as President from 1959-61. In 1960 he served as Team Manager for the Canadian Olympic Team and realized a dream come true when his hometown of Vancouver hosted the World Championships. In 1960 he also began work on the CFSA’s constitution, overseeing its incorporation in 1962. In 1965 the Granville Mayall Memorial Trophy was awarded to the Canadian Novice Dance Champions in recognition of this outstanding builder’s dedication and commitment.
