Short Description	Canadian football player
abstract	Bill Davies was an award winning and all-star football player in the Ontario Rugby Football Union and the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union, playing from 1936 to 1946. Coming straight from high school in 1936, Davies first suited up for the Montreal Indians. He ended up playing for nearly ever team in his hometown: Montreal Nationals, Montreal Royals, Montreal Bulldogs, Verdun Grads and the Montreal Hornets. Davies best season was, ironically, with the winless Montreal Royals in 1939. As one of the league's "brightest stars" and "outstanding as a secondary defenseman", he won the Jeff Russel Memorial Trophy as the best player in the IRFU. He would conclude his career in 1946, playing 4 games as one of the inaugural Montreal Alouettes. Davies later took up coaching, leading the Lakeshore Junior Alouettes from 1952 to 1957, winning six straight Quebec Junior championships and a National Championship in 1953. Bill Davies died May 28, 1990.
