Lies Vanderstam Trophy
Pandas Track and Field MVP
Lies Vanderstam was an active Alberta track and field athlete who previously competed for the Dutch at the 1936 Olympics. Vanderstam subsequently came to Canada, where she lived in Calgary. She continued to be very involved in track and field and was even scheduled to be an Olympic official but passed away before the event. Vanderstam’s daughter, Liz McBlain, a prominent University of Alberta athlete, was inducted into the University of Alberta’s Sports Wall of Fame on April 9, 1999 and donated the Lies Vanderstam Trophy, the Pandas MVP trophy that honours her mother’s memory.
