Alison Daysmith and Judy Humber were the dominant Canadian female badminton stars of their era. Each won the Canadian singles title and represented Canada at the Uber Cup world championships and Commonwealth Games. The two badminton stars were great friends as youngsters and it was Daysmith who, in Grade 6, heard there was drop-in badminton at the old Victoria Badminton Club on Amphion Street. She dragged Humber down to the club one day and they started playing. Their prowess was evident early as Daysmith won the Canadian junior women's title three times and Humber twice. Their careers were stellar and Daysmith was three-time Canadian women's singles champion, the 1975 North American women's singles champion, 1966 and 1970 Commonwealth Games quarterfinalist and two-time Uber Cup team player for Canada. Humber was the Canadian singles champion once, Canadian doubles champion once and Canadian mixed champion once. She represented Canada at two Uber Cups and three Commonwealth Games.

Doug Fletcher organized the Victoria Minor Hockey Association in 1942 and spent 16 years as its president before being made a life member. He became president of the Greater Victoria Box Lacrosse Association in 1941 and was one of the key driving forces behind the formation of the Senior A Victoria Shamrocks, which entered the Inter-City League in 1950. Doug helped form the Greater Victoria Minor Lacrosse Association in 1947 and under his guidance Victoria teams won 35 B.C. championships until he retired from coaching in 1965. He was also able to find time to referee as many as 10 lacrosse games a week. He was manager of the 1962 Minto Cup national junior lacrosse champion Victoria Shamrocks. The team played in the Memorial Arena that Fletcher helped build as the vice-chairman of the committee to raise the funds. He went on to become the first Arena Commissioner, and was the first Chairman of the Greater Victoria Sports Council, a 20-year member. Doug received 13 civic, national and international awards, including the Diamond Stick Award - the highest honour the B.C. Amateur Hockey Association can bestow. He was also inducted into the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame and the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame.
