GEORGE DUFTON AWARD
George Dufton Scholarship Award was founded by the Don Mills Flyers in 1968. In his youth, George Dufton was an outstanding student and athlete, and won a scholarship to university but his family did not have the additional funds for him to attend. During the Great Depression of the 1930's, George went to work in a tannery and never had the opportunity to attend university. This scholarship fund was established on his behalf to provide an opportunity to those who excel in hockey and at school. George passed away in November 1989, at the age of 77.
Presented annually by the Greater Toronto Hockey League to the Major Midget Player who achieves a high standard of excellence in hockey and at school.
