Defying the odds at the 41st Annual Marjorie Ward Lecture

March 13, 2025 — 
On March 11, 2025, St John's College hosted the 41st Annual Marjorie Ward Lecture, a series that has been focused on Canada, and in particular, Western Canada. It was established in 1980 to honour the College's long-standing Registrar, Marjorie Ward, on her retirement. Surrounded by his past and present players, friends, and passionate football fans, Coach Brian Dobie took to the stage—not to boast of his own achievements, but to celebrate the remarkable journeys of the athletes he had the privilege of coaching. As the evening drew to a close, one thing became undeniably clear: nothing is impossible!
