What Is Tuesday Afternoon Curling About?

Tuesday afternoon curling is a mixed league that emphasizes the social nature of the sport. The games are six ends beginning at 2:00. Each week teams are made up from those who are present. Although there is a core who curls each week, there are others who attend on a more casual basis.

​We welcome all curlers whether they are club members or not ($10 fee is applied when applicable). The curlers socialize afterwards with drinks from the bar or the kitchen. Typically, we leave around 4:00, giving some of us enough time to go home and prepare supper.

​ 
Come out and give it a try.
Tuesday afternoon curling is well suited to those who:
 
1. Work shifts and therefore can't make it every week,
2. Are considering using the stick delivery. Most of the Tuesday curlers use sticks and I am available to give guidance if requested.
3. Might enjoy a league where any level of sweeping activity is accepted - from a few licks to an all-out Al Cormier style.
4. Want to try Sturling - two person teams, no sweeping between the hog lines, get to throw 18 rocks per game (great for practicing a new delivery).
5. Want to use one of the empty sheets to practice.
6. Just want to get out of the house, get a little exercise, and socialize with like-minded people.
​Sparing Fees 

The sparing fee for non-members and one night members (curling in another league) is now $10.  As well, people can now spare five (5) times in a season before being required to get a membership. (*The sparing fees paid would be deducted from the cost of a full season membership.) 

The sparing fee should be collected by the skip who then gives it to the league convenor.
