Bruce Mattingly (born c. 1924) was a
centre in the
Ontario Rugby Football Union, playing 10 years with the
Sarnia Imperials.
A mainstay of the Sarnia offensive line, Mattingly was an all-star 5 times and won two ORFU championships. By far his best season was 1951, when he was an all-star, league champion, and to top it off, he won the
Imperial Oil Trophy as MVP in the ORFU.
Though Mattingly was offered contracts by other teams,
[Rough Riders Seek Sarnia Grid Stars Windsor Daily Star, January 23, 1952] he stayed in Sarnia and played with his older brother
Ray Mattingly and younger brother
Don Mattingly.
