Jeff Nicklin Memorial Trophy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jeff Nicklin Memorial Trophy is a trophy awarded to the Canadian Football League West Division's Most Outstanding Player, chosen from the nominees from each team in the division. Either this trophy winner or the winner of the Terry Evanshen Trophy will also receive the Canadian Football League Most Outstanding Player Award.

The Nicklin Memorial Trophy was donated to the CFL in 1946 by the first Canadian Paratroops Battalion, in memory of their commanding officer, Lt.-Col. Jeff Nicklin who was killed in action on March 24, 1945. Jeff Nicklin was known as an outstanding defensive end for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, when he wasn't in military action.

Since 1973, the trophy was awarded to the Most Outstanding Player of the West Division. As part of the failed American expansion in 1995, the trophy was awarded to the Most Outstanding Player of the North Division.
