GERALDTON JUNIOR CURLING
The Geraldton Curling club offers the youth of Greenstone the opportunity to “Throw Rocks at Houses.” Junior Curling has been available at the present day Geraldton Curling Club since the Winter of 1985. Over the years, the Club has supported junior curling in a variety of ways. Once a curler's skill level has progressed to a higher level, competitive curling is encouraged, as the club sends bantam and junior aged teams to compete in out of town competitions at the zone, district and provincial levels. Many of the competitive players also curl in the adult leagues.
On a less competitive note, funspiels are incorporated into the regular season, and curlers are also encourage to become involved in the funspiels promoted by the other clubs within Greenstone. The season is separated into two sessions, so curlers are able to join one or the other or both depending on their availability. The program is also separated into two levels, that being curlers in grades 3 to 5 and another for curlers in grade 6 and up. Curlers are provided with the equipment needed to allow them to learn the skills necessary to become an accomplished player. Instruction, skill competition, and games are provided for the players to learn the game of curling. We also offer the 'Skills Awards' program promoted by Curl Canada. This program allows curlers to compete against themselves to improve their skills, while at the same time earning a badge and certificate in progressive levels. We provide an environment which promotes fun, friendship and respect, all while learning the game of curling.
