This trophy began in 1979 when it was decided that the SWDGA Championship event was becoming too crowded to limit just to pennant players; so the Executive decided to have the second day Canadian Foursomes and to open the Championship to all silver division players and club champions. In 1980 the executive decided to name the Canadian Foursomes the Jean Russell Salver and in 1989 it was made the pennant presentation day and separated from the Championship. The Jean Russell Salver was named for Mrs Russell, as her contribution to the SWDGA was quite considerable.

Mrs. Russell was Torquay delegate for several years; President of SWDGA in 1968 and became Secretary in 1970 a position she held until 1984; was Treasurer in 1985 and in 1986 Mrs. Russell was named the 2nd Life Member of the SWDLGA an honour which thrilled her greatly. Mrs. Russell died in 2000.
