Curling at Whitecraigs
The Curling section, which has over 30 members and reserves, is a member of The Royal Caledonian Curling Club and Glasgow Province, and plays its matches at Braehead Ice Rink in Glasgow.
It has two internal competitions organised during the season from September to March and plays a number of friendly matches against other local clubs. To begin and end the season the club members play in a club bonspiel and towards the end of the season a ‘pairs and points’ competition is organised.
Since joining Glasgow Province in 2009 the club has entered a number of Province competitions with some success in its first year.
A highlight of the season is the annual weekend competition at The North West Castle Hotel in Stranraer. In 2010 the club entered five rinks in the competition and the rink skipped by Drew Fulton reached the final. 25 curlers and spouses attended the weekend and had a great time. The hotel has superb facilities and provides tremendous food throughout the weekend.
New members to the club are made very welcome whether you are a beginner or an experienced curler. Coaching is available for beginners and practice ice is also arranged.
Anyone interested in joining the Curling section should contact Clive Thomson by email at Clive.thomson_ntlworld.com or contact Hazel in the club office on 0141 639 1478.
