Junior Curling League
The Junior Curling League is a social league for youth curlers of all skill levels. Typical ages are 12-20, but exceptions can be made for younger curlers based on skill and experience.
Curlers will sign up as individuals and be assigned to teams for the season. More experienced youths will Skip teams and serve as mentors to newer curlers in addition to volunteer coaches who will be available during game times to assist. There will also be some weeks set aside for other activites such as skills development and badge certifications tests. The 2019/2020 conveners are Krista Kiers and Kurt Rahnenfuehrer.
Sundays 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
Sunday Little Rocks (age 7-11)
Welcome to a new season of Little Rock curling at the KW Granite Club! The Little Rock Program aims to teach new curlers the basics skills and etiquette of curling through a combination of drills and games. A regular Sunday session consists of drills and on ice instruction for the first hour, a 10 minute snack break (bring your own or purchase from the bar), and games for the second hour.
For the 2019-2020 season Little Rock ice times are from 1:00 to 3:00 on Sundays
As curlers gain experience and skills there will be opportunities for them to attend bonspiels (curling tournaments) throughout the year. We will provide more information on how bonspiels work on opening day so parents - please stick around for a bit once the kids go on the ice.
As for equipment, the curlers will require a clean pair of shoes that have not been worn outside and we recommend purchasing a slip on slider for one of the shoes which can be purchased at the pro shop or from online curling suppliers. There are club sliders that can be borrowed - but these are first come first serve.
There are club brooms that curlers can be used and there are enough for everyone if you don't have a broom.
Please make sure they dress in flexible pants and other clothing appropriate for a chilly arena.
Head protection is required for all little rock curlers.
As always - if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
