Kent Dixon

2017 Honouree – Builder, Football

Number of years served: many, number of lives influenced: hundreds and value of service to Brantford youth: priceless!

Kent Dixon’s business acumen translated very easily into his well-known coaching career. Drawing from his business experience, Dixon used his leadership skills to motivate, encourage, and inspire many young athletes. In addition to the countless hours of coaching, Dixon used his generous nature to create a very strong football program at Assumption College School (ACS). Many young men would not have had this wonderful opportunity were it not for Dixon’s drive and selfless donation of both time and funds.

While there are many victories and championships that he accumulated with his teams, the true value of Dixon’s contributions to the football program at ACS and to the Brantford Bisons football program is rooted in the opportunities and mentorship he has provided for many young athletes in the Brantford community.
