With planned lessons each week and instructors on every sheet, your game will get the attention to detail you deserve. This innovative league is Ideal for absolute beginners or novice curlers who want to hone their technique, improve their strategies, increase their confidence – and have fun doing it.
Each weekly two-hour session will include off- and on-ice instruction, practice sessions and games of increasing length through the season, which will run from mid October to March, when our autumn beginners will look like seasoned veterans curling at least 60 percent. Yes, we’ll explain curling percentages as well.
