If you are male, retired, 55 or over, whether experienced or new to curling, you are welcome to join our day time curling leagues. We are members of the Pacific Coast Masters Curling Association, (PCMCA) a provincial level curling organization, whose members are “daytime male curlers over the age of 60”. The PCMCA and its corresponding interior organization co-host annual provincial championships, which are absolutely amazing, and a great experience. Several of our club members have played in these Provincials, and they can attest to how thrilling it was to be participants. Last year our zone’s team came within a single shot of the championship. Participation in the Provincials is restricted by age (60), but our club activities are not.
We play on Tuesdays and Thursdays, in two separate leagues, although many of us play in both.
Tuesday Out of the Hat League (less competitive): teams are drawn from the hat, and play until Christmas; in the new year, new teams are drawn; new curlers who have taken our novice clinic are welcome to play in this league; we will fit you in! For those who travel, a half year fee is available. The first half is October to December and last is January to March.
Thursday Rink of Choice League: (more competitive): this league is a team of choice, for more experienced competitive curlers. Teams are already formed for the full season. They are always looking for experienced spares though. New teams are welcome and will be fitted in if the league has an even number of teams.
