Congratulations to our 2025-26 Regular Season Champions: Team K. Blonski! They finished the season with 168 points, a 16-4 record, and 2 Series wins.

WIth that said, it's time for the playoffs! As always, please take a quick look at the playoff rules as they do differ from the regular season. One particular change to note: After a successful trial run from last year, we are officially implementing the Time Clock Rule Change:

• Playoff Pool games will be set to 2hrs (up from 1:55 in the regular season). Tie games will be broken with skips rocks (then vice, second, and lead if required). 
• Semifinal and Final games will have no time limit and ties are broken with a full extra end toward the glass.

One small adjustment this year due to the number of teams: The E Flight Pool winner will go directly to the finals, and the 2nd and 3rd place teams will go to the Semi-Finals

The Full Playoff Schedule is:

Round Robin 1: March 18-19
Round Robin 2: March 25-26
Round Robin 3: April 1-2
Semi Finals: Wednesday, April 8th (no ice available April 9th)
Finals: Wednesday, April 15th

As always, you'll be able to view the full playoff brackets and/or the classic schedule. 

Finally, April 30th will be the club-wide end of the year party where we'll hand out all prizes for both playoff participants and series winners!

Good luck and good curling to everyone in the playoffs!

Please note that due to weather, the club will be closed all day today meaning that all games scheduled for tonight, Jan 15th, are CANCELLED.

All games will be rescheduled to SATURDAY February 7th at 3PM and 5:15PM. I will be updating the website to reflect this change later today.

If this date does not work for your team: You can reschedule your games to any available timeslots based on availability. Please note that SUNDAY Feb 8th is the absolute latest you can reschedule a game to. For any games attempting to reschedule for days that aren't a Wednesday or Thursday, please reach out to Rob to confirm availability.

Thanks everyone for your understanding and, hopefully, we'll be back on next week!

Many of you have emailed asking about the new World Curling Sweeping Technique Policy and if the rules will be implemented at the club level. In short, while we haven't seen significant usage of the techniques, the answer is yes we will be following policy and prohibiting them from being used.

For those who have no idea what is being referred to, see the links below explaining the policy and banned motions, as well as a demo video featuring Chelsey Carey and Hammy McMillan Jr.
