Domenic Mobilio served as Coquitlam Metro-Ford’s Technical Director until his sudden passing in 2004. Known affectionately as ‘DoMo,’ he was a standout in the Canadian Soccer League, holding the record as the league’s top scorer. He also represented Canada internationally, earning 25 caps and scoring three goals. In 2001, the Whitecaps retired his number 10 jersey and established the Domenic Mobilio Golden Boot Award, presented to the club’s leading scorer.
Beyond his achievements in soccer, Domenic had a profound impact on our Coquitlam community. As CMFSC's Technical Director, many of our staff coaches had the privilege of working with him, being coached by him, and forming friendships with him. We continue to honor his legacy through events like the Mobilio Friendship Jamboree, and by proudly displaying his number 10 on the back of our camp shirts.
The recipient of this scholarship will carry on Domenic's legacy and contribute positively to our community, reflecting his enduring impact.
