The Canadian Football League (CFL) is a professional Canadian football league. It consists of nine teams, divided into two divisions, with four teams in the East Division and five in the West Division. The CFL is the highest professional level of Canadian football and is headquartered in Toronto.. Eight are charter members from the league's inaugural 1958 season: the BC Lions, Calgary Stampeders, Edmonton Elks (formerly Eskimos), Hamilton Tiger-Cats, Montreal Alouettes, Saskatchewan Roughriders, Toronto Argonauts, and Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Although expansion teams have joined the league throughout its history, especially during the league's brief expansion into the United States, only the Ottawa Redblacks continue to play in the league today.

CFL - Leading Rusher CFL West Division - Eddie James Memorial Trophy

The Eddie James Memorial Trophy is presented annually to the leading rusher in the Western Division of the Canadian Football League. The award is named in honor of the Saskatchewan all-time great running back who played for the Roughriders during the 1930s. In 1995 this award was presented to the leading rusher in the Northern Division. Unlike other CFL trophies, there is no equivalent for the East Division.
