Return to Inductees list

Beginning in the 1950s, Doyle helped put high school sports, and especially football, on the map in B.C.

He was a founding member of the Coquitlam Secondary Athletic Association, and played a large role in the establishment of the B.C. High School Athletic Association, which governs high school sports.

A leader, teacher, coach, and vice-principal at Centennial Secondary, Doyle diligently built the initial football program at then-Como Lake in the mid-1950s en route to Centennial’s 1966 provincial.
