Dave Dryburgh Memorial Trophy

The Dave Dryburgh Memorial Trophy is a Canadian Football League trophy, given to the top scorer in the West Division.^[1] Unlike other CFL trophies, there is no East Division counterpart.^[2]

The trophy was established in November 1948, by sportswriters in Western Canada to honour Dave Dryburgh, the sports editor of the Regina Leader-Post who died in a boating accident in 1948. It was originally awarded to the top scorer in the Western Interprovincial Football Union.^[3]
