BC Football Hall of Fame Inductee Bill MacGregor enjoyed a successful career with the Vancouver Meralomas, SFU Clan and a 1973 BC Lions Draft Pick.

He then stepped into his favourite role as Coach Mac, building football programs like the Abbotsford Panthers who not only lifted up a trophy, but also their community. Bill earned his Masters and Doctorate in Education where as a high school principal the impact he had on youth has lasted a life time.

Along the way were unexplained changes until Bill’s diagnosis with CTE and Dementia. Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy known as CTE is coming to light as a neurodegenerative disease caused by repetitive brain injury. More research is required for early diagnosis and treatment to slow down the disease.

This is a story celebrating strength through adversity and all that Coach Mac has gifted to people, but also a reflection about what has been taken away from his family – who share heartbreak and loss in not knowing what was taking place.
