Dave Sidoo thanks his dad for his achievements in life

The Vancouver Sun highlighted former UBC football player Dave Sidoo who won the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame’s W.A.C. Bennett Award.

Sidoo was honoured for his contributions to the sporting communities of B.C. and Canada.

“UBC gave me everything,” he said. “It’s where I met my wife. It’s where I met my best friends, and they’re still my best friends. I came up from nothing and had to work for everything. I owe this school so much.”
