Coach Dumont shared, “For the last 37 years of my life I have either been playing or coaching the game I love, the 17 years coaching at Regina has been the best part of my football journey. It is time for me to step away from the game I love and spend more time enjoying other aspects of my life….the most rewarding part of being a coach at Regina was not the success we had, it was seeing young boys become young men and watching the success they had in life after football. If the standard is Leave it better than you found it, we did that and then some. Once a Regal, Always a Regal.”
