Bantam Mixed Results:

The Bantam Mixed Team gained valuable experience at the Bantam mixed Provincials the weekend of March 30th. The team, all rookies at a Provincial event represented the town of Parry Sound and the Parry Sound Curling Club very well. After cruising through the Zone and Regional playdowns, they met up with some experienced competition at the Provincial event, falling short of their goal to become Provincial Champions. However they gained invaluable experience that will help them in their development.
An additional note - Terri Weeks was voted as the Most Sportsmanlike Athlete of the event.
Congratulations to Terri Weeks, Nathan Marshall, Sarah Stoneman and Nick Mayede and to Coach Chris Weeks for a job well done!

you may do so up to 10 times for no extra charge.  After playing 10 times on another night, the cost is only $10.

I will need your results.  Please make sure your scorecard is submitted immediately following

your game.  The winning team should do this, whether it is a win by playing or by default. 

If you don't want to be bugged for results, or you don't want to be given a score of zero (both teams)

 - then be sure to submit your card.

Club Championship                                                                                     

Congratulations to our new Club Champions Brad Robinson, Stephen Webb, Oliver Moloney

and Thomas McGown.  Brad and Steve's Tuesday night team took the game in a well-crafted

victory over Steve Holmes' Thursday men's team in the finals on Friday, April 8th.

Winners of the Second event were Dan Hill's Thursday night team of Mike Villeneuve, Les Hill,

Paul Milligan 

and skip Dale Bushey.  They defeated Barry Medwid and his Thursday night team.

Winners of the third event were Wayne Ferguson, Sue Ferguson, Fred Loosemore and Pat

Jarzembecki who defeated Ron Marshall's Thursday night team in a real nail-biter. 

Both skips made fantastic shots to end the game but Wayne's double raise take-out sealed the victory.

Fourth event winners were Scott Jennings, Trudy Orr, Randy Orr and Phyllis Harris who all

played extremely well and took the win over the Burgess team from Thursday night.
