"Behind every club organization there has to be one person who has to make the final decision on behalf of that club. The past five or six years, Bob Fallis has had the not so honored privilege of handling the Bradford Queens senior ball club. Bob is no stranger to the Bradford sports fan as he has helped bring numerous Ontario championships to this town both as a coach and player."
