Junior Curling at Cataraqui

'Welcome to the 2022/23 Curling Season. Plans are underway for another great season. Steve Hulton is your Junior Section Chair and Kate Davey is the Junior Coordinator.

What is it?

The junior program is designed for aspiring curlers 7-18 years of age. Our innovative Learn to Curl program offers a three level development program led by a group of experienced instructors. The distinct levels maximize enjoyment, and at the same time ensure that our curlers develop in a progressive manner. The cost is $98 plus Taxes.

Where do I get my equipment?

We will gladly provide a complimentary slider to each new junior member. After that, all you need is a helmet (hockey, or ski), clean shoes, and loose yet warm clothing. Brooms are provided on a weekly basis. If you prefer, you can purchase a curling broom and shoes.

When do you play?

The Level One session begins at 12:00pm until 1:00pm and is played on Sunday’s. Level 2 and level 3 juniors will play from 12:00pm til 1:30pm. The full session runs from October 30th, 2022 through to December 18th, 2022 and from January 8th, 2023 to April 2nd, 2023.

What are the levels?

Level 1 – Beginner

This is the BEST starting point for a young curler. Starting as young as 7, these clinics are suited for beginning curlers up to 11 years of age. It is an excellent atmosphere to introduce juniors to the beginning basics.

Level 2 – Intermediate

This program is designed for young curlers that have reached the specific skill / performance benchmarks in the Hit the Button program. In the Double Takeout program the young curlers will continue to develop the FUNDAMENTALS of curling and the performance benchmarks will include strong mechanics with a traditional curling stone. Curlers successfully completing this program are ready to curl.

Level 3 – Advanced

After reaching the specific skill / performance benchmarks in the Double Takeout program the Hit and Roll program begins to focus on fine tuning the delivery mechanics, become an effective sweeper, understand teamwork and refine curling strategy.
