Register for Hit, Draw, Tap
Youths aged 6-13 are invited to register for the annual Hit, Draw, Tap competition to be held at Elmwood Curling Club on Saturday, December 16, 2023.
Competitors throw three shots, the Hit, the Draw and the Tap and are awarded points for each shot.
Winners go on to the regional competition and can potentially move on to provincials next February.
You won’t believe who won the club championship!
It’s no secret. Rink Suchy went 13-3 this season, securing the title of grand aggregate for the 2022-2023 season. It is only logical that the 6-person team made up of Chris Suchy (skip) Brett Walter, Scott Harding, Shane Kilgallen, Dan Hogeveen and Keith Plezia went on to conquer the club championship in a final match-up against rink Jackson.
Additional A, B and X events were also concluded on the evening of Thursday, March 31.
A-Side: Brad Micholson, Ian Campbell, Ryan Lagace, Paul Neilands.
B-Side: Leonard Peterson, Eric Peterson, Colin Baril, Larry Trump, Darren Kruger.
X-Side: Michel Durand-Wood, Antoine Cantin-Brault, Jamie Morneau, Réal Durand.
Elmwood Victorious in O’Grady Challenge!
Congratulations to our eight Elmwood Curling Club ambassadors who took the ice by storm in the O’Grady Cup Challenge on Saturday, March 18.
The two Elmwood teams were made up of Joey Hondz, Russ Bevan, Kevin Kirkness, Chris Trotter, Shawn Lukaschuk, Eric Pellerin, Ben Hatch, and Josh Benjamin.
The challengers hailed from Winkler.
The competition, which dates back to 1908, puts two clubs at odds, each putting forth a double rink (two teams) where the winner is the club having accumulated the most points in a round-robin format. The winning club retains the title until its next loss.
Elmwood is off to the Granite Curling Club next weekend hoping to retain the crown.
Hit Draw Tap is back!
Athletes 6-13 years old are invited to compete in Curl Manitoba’s annual Hit Draw Tap competition. As individuals, each participant is asked to perform three different shots – a hit, a draw, and a tap. Non-club members can participate, so feel free to invite a friend!
