BUILDER
Jim Hubbard (aka “Mother” Hubbard) is well known around sports circles in Victoria. With Rugby, Jim’s involvement goes back to the 1970s, first as a player with the James Bay Athletic Association (JBAA) and later as JBAA manager for 19 years. Jim was a huge contributor to the culture of the club. He was a team manager for the National Rugby Centre for many years and helped coordinate several national team tours.
Jim was also a softball umpire and administrator and was President of Major Men’s Softball at Central Park in Victoria. Jim was honoured with the Softball Canada Distinguished Service Award in 1993 and Washington State Umpires Association Award for Leadership and Teaching in 2004.
Despite his immense contributions to rugby and softball, Jim may best be known as the “Mad Viking” patrolling the Vikes basketball sidelines during their most golden of eras. Jim was honoured with the Greater Victoria Sports Council Kiwanis Distinguished Service Award in 1990 and Canadian Indicator Club Distinguished Service Award in 1996.
