Join us every Tuesday night from now through until April. New curlers are welcome at any time, especially on our next beginners night, November 22, so do get in touch if you’d like to try the sport.
There are opportunities for club curlers to get a fun game in every week, and the Straus tournament is running alternate evenings throughout the year. Later in the season we’ll have the Ann Beeley tournament to play and other competitions to take part in so keep your eye on the calendar.
Take a look at the rink: Pictures of our Opening Night in October and the last English curling championships.
