This unique training experience seamlessly blends expert instruction with league play, ensuring you gain confidence and skill.

Each session builds on the previous week, ensuring steady progress.

Upon completion of the 8-week program, you’ll have the opportunity to step into regular league play starting in January. Experience the thrill of structured team games, complete with opportunities for learning during play.

Our coaching will emphasize critical skills such as safety, weight control, reading the ice, calling the line, team building, and communication. You’ll practice decision-making in a simulated league environment and explore various curling positions—setting you up for success as you join other leagues tailored to your journey.

**Starter’s Equipment Package:** Our Pro Shop can equip you with a starter’s package for a reasonable price and provides a variety of options for brooms, shoes and other equipment.

Important: In order to keep the ice clean and clear of dirt and fibres (which adversely effects play) we ask the following:

• If you do not have curling shoes, please bring running shoes with clean soles, ones that have NOT been worn outside;  we suggest thoroughly cleaning the soles of a pair of flat-soled running shoes and use them only for curling.
• Ensure you have warm, loose clothing made of fabric that does not shed. Layering is ideal.

ROWAN'S LAW 

The Ontario Government has enacted Rowan’s Law (Concussion Safety Protocol).  The Act requires all sport organizations as defined in the Regulation, to have a Concussion Code of Conduct.

Rowan’s Law was named for Rowan Stringer, a high school rugby player from Ottawa, who died in the spring of 2013 from a condition known as second impact syndrome (swelling of the brain caused by a subsequent injury that occurred before a previous injury healed). Rowan is believed to have experienced three concussions over six days while playing rugby. She had a concussion but didn’t know her brain needed time to heal. Neither did her parents, teachers or coaches.
