Bill Adair 1959-1993



Bill Adair was a fixture of Cambridge Springs Athletics from 1959-1993. He was a man that knew and was involved in every facet of the athletic program. In the beginning of his tenure at Cambridge Springs, Bill found himself coaching three sports golf, basketball, and baseball. He had success in all three ventures posting winning seasons and tournament championships, but it was his commitment after coaching that changed the face of Cambridge Springs Sports.

Bill was essential in developing and creating the surrounding environment and facilities necessary to create winning programs here at the Spa. He was instrumental in pushing for the building of the wrestling room and the additional gym at the elementary school. He was “hands on” in the securing and/or construction of the Football Field House, the base of the football scoreboard and press box, the Blue Devil logo in the high school gym, the baseball fence, drainage for the football field, and many other necessities still used by our athletic teams today. In the end, what was most valued by Cambridge Springs Athletes and Community was Bill’s belief in the importance of athletics and his support for that venture. Even after his retirement Bill can be found listening to Blue Devil games on the radio and following the success of our teams in the local paper. He is to this day a devout Cambridge Springs Blue Devil.
