The Vanier Cup trophy was created in 1965 when General
Georges P. Vanier, then Governor General of Canada, graciously
granted permission to the Canadian Save the Cildren Fund to
name the trophy awarded to the winners of Canada's university
football championship, then called the Canadian College Bowl.
For the first two years, in 1965 and 1966, the Canadian College
Bowl was an invitational event featuring two teams selected
by a national panel. The first winners of the Vanier Cup trophy
in 1965 were the University of Toronto Varsity Blues, and
General Vanier personally presented them with the Vanier Cup
at Varsity's athletic banquet in the Spring of 1966.
The Canadian College Bowl and the Vanier Cup trophy took
on a new dimension in 1967 when the Bowl was officially declared
the CIAU (now CIS) National Football Championship, with semi-final
playoffs to determine the two teams that would meet in the
Final.
In 1982, the name of the championship game was changed from
Canadian College Bowl to Vanier Cup.
