Carol Barrott (BLUEBOMBERS.COM)
Longtime Winnipeg Blue Bombers staff member and fan favourite Carol Barrott has been recognized with the CFL’s Jane Mawby Tribute Award for her decades of dedication to the team and its supporters.
Barrott, a season ticket holder since 1970, first joined the Bombers organization as a volunteer in 2005 before moving into the ticketing department three years later. Her warmth and commitment to fan service quickly made her a cornerstone of the club, eventually leading to her role as manager of ticketing and fan services.
Now serving as a mentorship-focused account executive, Barrott continues to guide her colleagues while remaining a familiar, friendly face to fans at Princess Auto Stadium.
“Carol is the heart of what makes our organization special,” said Wade Miller, president and CEO of the Winnipeg Football Club.
“She’s been a constant source of warmth, dedication and joy for our fans and our staff alike. Whether she’s helping a first-time visitor find their seat or reconnecting with a season ticket member she’s known for years, she treats everyone like family. We’re incredibly proud to see her honoured with this award — no one deserves it more.”
The Jane Mawby Tribute Award recognizes behind-the-scenes CFL employees who demonstrate exceptional dedication and passion for their teams.
