OCC Junior Curling Wrapup
An enthusiastic group of OCC junior curlers finished their season today. For most, it was their first season of curling and it was amazing to see how much they each progressed.
Big thanks to our coaches who helped out all year - Jackie, Nancy, John, Chet and Sherri!

Here are some photos from today's games. We made up teams with a coach on each team and played a couple of games. You'll see that we use half--hacks for the younger curlers. We use full size rocks and it's hard for them to throw the whole length of the ice - so we use the half hacks and they throw to the house. We can adjust the position of the hacks as they build their strength.
Congratulations to Team Muise - 2022 Curling Alberta Mixed Champions
We enjoyed a competitive week of curling with the top 8 Mixed teams from across Alberta. Lots of excellent shots and many close games including Sunday's 9-end final between Team Muise vs. Team Powell.
Good luck in the Canadian Championship!
