Discover the excitement of curling with our Junior Curling Program, where kids learn teamwork, strategy, and sportsmanship in a fun and supportive environment. Designed for all skill levels, our program helps build confidence both on and off the ice. Join us, and watch your child slide into a lifetime of new friendships and healthy competition!
We offer both beginner and intermediate sessions on Saturdays from October to March. We provide all the equipement your child needs and even snacks!
Requirements:
- Dress in warm, athletic attire. A hat, thin gloves, and thick socks may help keep your child warm. Please tie back longer hair.
- Don’t wear boots or snow pants (too bulky), very fluffy or fuzzy clothing (fuzz will fall onto the ice and make it dirty), dirty clothes or shoes (we need to keep our ice clean), or jeans (can be too restricting)
- Wear your street shoes and bring CLEAN rubber-soled shoes to wear on the ice (street shoes are NOT allowed on the ice)
- Everyone who steps on the ice - children and adults - is required to sign a waiver. Parents or guardians will complete this during registration. Copies will be available at the Club for adults that wish to join on the ice.
