Youth Curling
| Perhaps
the greatest part of the game of curling is that anyone of any
age can learn the game and compete, including youngsters. The
Manotick Curling Center boasts an active Junior program, which
allows children and young adults from the ages of 6 to 20 to participate.
Our primary focus is to have fun, and teach fundamental skills,
good sportsmanship, fair play and respect for the game and other
players. Our Junior Program offers instruction and competition for all levels of skill, using Canadian Coaching Association/Canadian Curling Association certified instructors. We feel very strongly that teaching the basics in a proper manner will allow beginning curlers to enjoy the game even more. Virtually all of Canada's greatest curlers began their careers in a Junior Program, but even if you want to join as a social player, learning the ropes properly will allow you to have even more fun. |
| Participating in Bonspiels (tournaments) is another important and exciting part of our Junior Program. Young people enjoy competing against curlers of similar ability from other clubs throughout the Ottawa Valley. We have enjoyed tremendous success at many bonspiels, but more importantly, bonspiels are always a lot of fun. |

Our program is broken down into three age categories: Little
Rocks 6 - 12 years |
