Day Ladies League
The Day Ladies curl every Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:15-11:15 a.m. This group prides itself in being non competitive and players enjoy the social aspect of curling as much as the game itself with coffee and treats often enjoyed after each game in the upstairs lounge. In December, the Ladies have an in house Turkey Spiel; in January, they play 2 Fun Spiels with the Club's Day Men, in a Mix n' Match format; and, in February, host a Valentine's Invitational Bonspiel with teams coming from different clubs in the area. Occasionally, the ladies travel to spiels at other clubs as well. Social would be the best way to describe the Day Ladies.
New members of any skill level are always welcome! Come join the FUN!
Day Men's League
The Day Men’s Curling Association is made up of many retirees, but open to all men . They hit the ice as many as three times a week on a recreational basis with a strong emphasis placed on the social aspect of the game.Games take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1:00 pm and Fridays at 9:00 am. Two things that make the daytime curling an enjoyable experience is that no one is assigned to any one team, you play with a different group each day so you are not committed to playing on any particular day, and, the format of switch-around play is used whereby you play two ends at each position.This Men's group also get involved in several Home and Home series with other clubs, including the Truro Day Ladies group. Over and above regular curling are other events like a Christmas bonspiel, a three day senior’s club championship series and the hosting of a full day invitational bonspiel with clubs from other towns. Open Fridays usually result in a luncheon after curling known as 'Pizza Fridays'! Overall, great fun takes place both on and off the ice and is greatly enjoyed by all who participate. Registration required for this League.
Stick League
Stick Curling is a great activity, with the excitement and challenge of curling for people of all ages on a recreational or competitive basis, and in a social atmosphere. Stick Curling is very appropriate for those with physical limitations (knee, back, heart, shoulder, arm, hip, feet) or simply those that can no longer get in the hack. The stones are delivered with a special stick from a standing, moving or sitting position (wheelchair).People who cannot manage the slide delivery can stick curl. Stick curling has no gender or age restrictions, men and women of all ages can play. The game provides a good mix of people and results in great camaraderie for all involved. A team consists of only two people and each player delivers six stones per end against his opponent. Games usually only last six ends, taking approximately one hour.There is no sweeping/brushing between the hoglines. Both players are always busy, one is skipping and the other, delivering. Stick curlers are not restricted to playing in only a league of stick players/teams, you can also curl in regular club activities with the other club members. Stick League plays Mondays, starting at 10am with each team playing two draws.
