After two successful seasons of “Drop-In Stick Curling”, we’re starting a Stick Curling League and looking for a few more players.
We’ll be using a round-robin format – so mixing up teams each game. Each games is about 1 hour long, so we can play 2 draws each week.
We’ll be playing games in the 2-person, 6 ends, 6 rocks format using the Official Stick Curling rules. It’s a quick moving game and lots of fun. You get to learn about strategy and also throw lots of stones. There is no sweeping allowed between the hog lines.
Never heard of 2-person Stick Curling? There is lots of information on the Canadian Stick Curling Association website: https://canadianstickcurling.ca/
And if you want to learn more about stick curling, the game, the equipment, strategy and more, here’s a very comprehensive informative video: Basic Stick Curling Skills
If you’ve never used the delivery stick, but are interested in trying it out, we can arrange a “learn to stick curl” session. We’d love to share our knowledge and provide basic instruction.
If you’d like to sign up for this 5 week session, please let me know by Sunday so I can get the schedule set up. It’s going to be fun!!

P.S. – We’re planning on another 2 sessions of 5-6 weeks in the new year. So if you can’t join us now, maybe then.
