Curlmanitoba
President’s Message
here are historical references to curling being played in the Red
River Settlement before Manitoba became a province in 1870.
The first club, the Manitoba Curling Club was established in 1876.
However, the recorded history of ‘organized curling’ in Manitoba began
the December day in 1888 when representatives of seven clubs met to
form an association. Hence in 2012-13 we celebrate our organization’s
125th official season.
t
Over the years, the Manitoba Curling Association (now CurlManitoba,
originally the Manitoba Branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club)
has been recognized for excellence of our curlers, for leadership at the
national and international level, but perhaps most of all for running
Resby Coutts
the world’s largest and longest running annual Men’s Bonspiel,
President
which will also celebrate its 125th anniversary in 2013. It is perhaps
Morris/Fort Rouge
not surprising the MCA Bonspiel is so closely tied to our worldwide
reputation. In their book, written in tribute to the 100th anniversary in 1988, Morris Mott and John
Allardyce described the reasons for establishment of the organization this way.
“At their gatherings in the early to mid-1880’s, as well as in their local clubs, the curlers discussed
the possibility of forming an association for the West. It would become an affiliate of the RCCC
in Scotland – just as eastern Canadian associations had. Through that affiliation, western
curlers would be able to keep in touch with the parent body of their sport, as well as with world
developments in technique, equipment and strategy. More important, through an association,
western curlers would hold an annual bonspiel. Such an event would allow them to assemble
regularly for fun and good fellowship. It would also provide a means through which western teams
might show they could play their game as well as anyone, and thereby prove to themselves and the
world that the sport was well entrenched in the region.”
I think it fair to say the leaders who met that day (December 6, 1888) to formalize establishment
of the organization would say those objectives have been met. As we celebrate the 125th bonspiel
in January 2013, there is no question that a very large amount of ‘fun and fellowship’ have taken
place over the previous 124 events.

As we celebrate the Canadian Curling Trials, the Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings presented by Monsanto,
in December 2013, there is no question ‘western teams have shown they can play the game as well
as anyone and that the sport is well entrenched in the region”. And yet I have to wonder what those
leaders from 125 years ago would think of the organization they established. They responded to the
needs of the sport of curling in their time in the way they considered most appropriate.
I believe they would applaud the efforts of CurlManitoba to respond to the needs of the sport
in our changing times. I believe they would applaud the current leaders of the organization for
recognizing the challenges facing the sport at the local and community level must take precedence
over a need to prove ‘we can play the game as well as anyone’.
We take great pride in the accomplishments of the elite curlers who represent Manitoba nationally
and internationally. We take great pride in the accomplishments of Manitoba-born competitors
who represent other jurisdictions nationally and internationally. And we take great pride in the
desire to excel and the effort required by those who would challenge to reach that level.
If we are to properly honour the memory of those who have gone before us in Manitoba curling, however,
it is the role of CurlManitoba to focus our attention on the future. And the future lies in working with the
organizations and curling facilities, and their participating members, in ensuring our sport is available for all.
For those who want to play this great game for the sheer joy of the game, the fun and the fellowship, as
well as for those who want to excel and challenge, to prove they can play the game as well as anyone.
CurlManitoba is more than just its Board of Directors, its staff and its volunteers. It is every curler and every
building where the game is played across the province. In tribute to the vision of the founders 125 years
ago, I urge all of us to re-dedicate ourselves to the future of our great sport. Not for personal benefit or
satisfaction but to ensure our sport of curling maintains its rightful place in Manitoba’s sports landscape.
We leave no stone unturned

(Publisher’s Note: Re-elected for 2012-13, Resby Coutts joined J.B. Mather Granite, the
1888-89 & 1889-90 President, as the only person to serve consecutive terms. In 125 years,
only two others served a second term as President; J.W O’Grady-Assiniboine (1907-08 &
1911-12) and Robert Jacob-St John’s (1926-27 & 1937-38).

Message FroM
the PremIer of mAnItobA
n behalf of the Province and people of Manitoba, I am delighted to greet
readers of the 2012-2013 CurlManitoba Yearbook. As the weather turns
cool, tens of thousands of Manitobans look forward to another season of friendly
competition on the ice.
o
The sport of curling has a long and rich history in our province. Year after
year, Manitoba teams take their place atop podiums across the country and
in the process inspire young athletes to strive for excellence. This tradition of
achievement lives on through dedicated competitors like yourselves whose
commitment to the sport makes it one of the most popular pastimes of our
province. Whether you are just starting out or are aiming for the provincial
championship, it is sure to be a great year.
2012-2013 is particularly special because it will see the 125th Annual MCA Men’s Bonspiel. Already the
world’s largest bonspiel, this season’s competition will give Manitoba’s many curling families an opportunity to
reflect on how much the game has meant to them. Congratulations on this milestone!
Greg Selinger
Premier of Manitoba

sPort mAnItobA
o
n behalf of Sport Manitoba it gives me great pleasure to welcome the
many thousands of curlers across our province to another roaring season.
Many enthusiasts at both the recreational and competitive level enjoy curling,
making it one of the province’s largest participation sports. The significance of the
sport in Manitoba and its contribution to the foundation of our sport community
is invaluable. As a life long sport, curling contributes to the physical and social
well-being of participants while fostering community and volunteer development.
The success of curling in our province is a result of the leadership and support
provided by CurlManitoba and experienced, dedicated and industrious volunteers.
From grassroots programs to building Olympians, Manitoba’s curling programs
have enabled us to become a leader in Canada.
The development of the Sport for Life Centre, a first in Canada, ensures that Manitoba continues to lead
the way. Once completed, the Sport for Life Centre will profoundly improve access to sport and sport training
across Manitoba.
On behalf of Sport Manitoba, I extend best wishes to all curlers and the CurlManitoba for another
successful season.

CurlInG hAll-of-fAme And museum
n behalf of the Executive and Board of Directors of the Manitoba Curling
Hall-of-Fame and Museum, I am pleased to extend a welcome and greeting
to all the curlers and curling fans. I wish you all success and sportsmanship during
the 2012-2013 season.
o
Last year, we celebrated 25 years of honouring those who have made curling
the great sport we enjoy today, the curlers, builders, curler builders and teams.
The Hall-of-Fame looks forward to continued recognition and celebrating the
accomplishments within the curling fraternity.
We should be very proud, as we are the only ones in Canada to have a place
where we can honour our curlers.
The Hall-of-Fame appreciates and thanks CurlManitoba for their continued support and also to our founding
members and volunteers for the many hours given in support of curling. Please mark your calendars for
Sunday, May 5, 2013 for our 26th annual Manitoba Curling Hall-of-Fame Induction Dinner at the CanadInn
Polo Park.
I hope everyone has a great year in curling. Good luck and enjoy the sportsmanship of curling.

rae hainstoCK
Rae, who has been a member of the Burntwood Curling Club in Thompson, MB since
1970, is one of only three Honourary Life Members of the Club.
He first joined the executive in 1971, where he helped set up the inaugural “shift
league” for those working at the INCO mine. As a member of the Burntwood Curling
Club executive for most of the last 40 years, Rae served as President for four terms.
He chaired committees for the 1994 Tankard, and both Scott Tournament of Hearts
held in Thompson. He was also chairman for numerous Men’s, Mixed, Seniors and
Masters zone and district playoffs.
Rae joined the MCA (CurlManitoba) board in 2007 when it still consisted of about 44 members. He served
on the championship review committee, served one year after the board changed to the current format of 12
members, and took on more of a “management” role. After deciding that a more “hands on” relationship
with the clubs in the Norman District was more suited to his skill set, he served one year on the CurlManitoba
management board and acted as the Norman District Liaison and recruited a suitable replacement to
represent the north on the CurlManitoba board. He focused on the operational side (District Liaison) of
dealing with clubs spread over the ~800 kilometre range on the great white north.
Rae is honoured and humbled to be recognized as an Honourary Life Member of CurlManitoba, and hopes
to remain actively involved after his recent relocation to Brandon.
Cindy MaddoCK
Cindy started curling on natural ice at the Rathwell Curling Club in the early 1970’s.
She has been a member of the Morden club since 1981 and has also been a member
of the St. Adolphe and Fort Garry clubs.
After serving actively as a Morden Curling Club volunteer and committee member
of four provincial championships held in Morden, including acting as Co-Chair of the
2003 Scott Tournament of Hearts, Cindy became a provincial volunteer.
Cindy became actively involved in the Provincial MLCA just prior to the
amalgamation with MCA in 2000 and what is now known as CurlManitoba. She joined the MCA Board
of Directors in 2000 as the MCA Central Regional Director for 2000/2001 year and was elected to the
Management Committee from 2001-2005. In 2006, she was elected as the Central Regional Director
and again was elected to the Management Committee from 2007-2009, then elected to Vice President
CurlManitoba 2009/2010 and President CurlManitoba 2010/2011. As Past President CurlManitoba she was
then nominated by CurlManitoba to run for the Canadian Curling Association Board of Governors. After being
elected as a CCA Board of Governor, Cindy resigned her position of Past President in September 2011.
During her years on the CurlManitoba Board, Cindy was Event Liaison for seven different provincial
championships. She also held positions as the MCA Communications & Club Liaison Chair 2002, MCA Rules
Committee Chair 2003, MCA Technical & Development Chair 2003, MCA Review Chair Curling Hall-of-Fame
& Museum 2004, MCA Rep Manitoba Curling Foundation 2004-2006, MCA Manitoba Curling Foundation
Secretary 2006-2009, MCA Board Development Committee 2008-2009 and is a member of the CurlManitoba
Development Fund Committee from 2009-2012.
Volunteering in the sport of curling has been both fulfilling and rewarding for Cindy. She has met and
worked with many wonderful people and will cherish those friendships. Cindy is extremely honoured and very
humbled to receive an Honourary Life Membership in CurlManitoba.

Marlene Mori
Marlene’s involvement with CurlManitoba started with the Manitoba Ladies Curling
Association, when she was the “working delegate” from the Thistle Business Girls
Curling Club. Over the years as the working delegate she was called on to assist with
various events organized by the MLCA. From this beginning, she was elected to the
board of CurlManitoba in 2003 and served for eight years, four of those years as a
member of Management Committee. During those years she assisted with numerous
CurlManitoba events including various berth bonspiels, and was Chair of the MCA
Women’s Bonspiel and of the Provincial Youth Curling Championship and Youth Jamboree, each for several
years. She has been a part of the organizing committee for the Youth Championship and Jamboree since its
inception in 1999.
During 2008-2010 she was Chair of the CurlManitoba Affiliation Fee Committee, which led to a change in
the membership fee structure. In 2010 she worked on the review and revision of the Constitution and By-Laws
for CurlManitoba, the Manitoba Curling Hall-of-Fame and the Manitoba Curling Foundation. During 2011-12
she has been a member of the Policy Task Force which reviewed, revised, researched and wrote policies which
will govern CurlManitoba.
Marlene has been on the Board of the Manitoba Curling Hall-of-Fame. She was on the organizing
committee for the Optimists International Under 18 Curling Championship. This was a great experience as she
was able to work closely with the boys and girls teams from Japan.
Marlene has been a member of the Thistle Business Girls Curling Club since the late 1980’s and has held
the positions of MLCA Working Delegate, Treasurer, Secretary, President and Past President. She was also the
Treasurer for the Granite Business Girls Curling Club. She is an Honourary Life Member of the Thistle Business
Girls Curling Club.
Marlene is proud to be recognized as an Honourary Life Member of CurlManitoba.

been a member of the Deloraine Curling Club since 1973. He has been on the draw
committee at Deloraine since the late 1970’s and is currently the President of the
Deloraine Curling Club.
Lorne was on the MCA Board of Directors for three years in the early 2000’s and in
2003 was the MCA Representative at the Provincial Senior Men’s Championships in
Melita. He has chaired the Zone 9 Men’s Playdowns since 1997 and has also chaired
Juniors, Seniors, Masters and Mixed Zone Playdowns held in Deloraine. He also coached a junior men’s team
for a few years.
Lorne has really enjoyed all the friendships that he has made over the years through the sport of curling.
Lorne is honoured to be recognized as an Honourary Life Member by CurlManitoba.

he Ladies Past Presidents’ Association is an
independent organization devoted to the
fellowship of curling. Any woman who has been president of any curling club or league, whether in Manitoba
or anywhere in the world, may become a member of
the association. Members meet for an annual one-day
bonspiel and luncheon the third week in November,
usually at the President’s home club. Bonspiel teams are
“drawn from a hat” by the draw committee and many
Past Presidents who no longer curl attend the bonspiel
to renew friendships and cheer on the curlers. A spring
luncheon meeting is held on the first Monday in May.
This is the 80th anniversary year of our Association
and all women who have been President of any club or
league are invited to join us and help celebrate the fun,
friendships and memories we’ve all received through
curling. Most curling clubs have a representative to
t
keep members informed of our activities, collect our
‘loonie’ membership fee, and register members for the
bonspiel and luncheons. Anyone not affiliated with a
curling club may join our Association by contacting our
president or secretary.
Our bonspiel this year is on Wednesday, November
21, 2012, at the Pembina Curling Club. Members may
enter individually or through their club rep, and can
expect fun along with the curling!
Our spring luncheon is planned for Monday, May 6,
2013, at the Downs. This is always a fun and enjoyable
event to end the curling season and start the spring
season. Keep it in mind and come out to renew
acquaintances, make new friends and help celebrate
80 years of Past Presidents!

Anderson 204-269-7878 or Leila Farrell 204-837-2806.

susan galbraith MeMorial sPortsManshiP award
This award is named in memory of Susan Galbraith who had a long time association with junior curling, first
as a parent watching her three son’s advance through the junior ranks, and second, as a member of MLCA
Council from 1997-1999. In May 2000 Susan was elected a member of the Management Committee of the
newly amalgamated Manitoba Curling Association but passed away suddenly in August 2000.
The winners are selected each year by a vote of all competitors at the Manitoba Canola Growers Junior
Men’s and Women’s Provincial Championship. The award is presented to two participating junior athletes for
their demonstration of their commitment to the Fair-Play Code of ethics during the provincial championships.

world silver
for team robertson
World Curling Championship Silver Medal
represents two things for Neepawa’s Kelly
Robertson, who skipped his 2011 Canadian
Senior Men’s champion team to the World Silver in
Denmark in April 2012.
First, it is a symbol of the wonderful
accomplishments of a team assembled a year earlier
when long time teammates Robertson, Doug Armour
and Peter Prokopowich were joined by Bob Scales in
his first year of Senior eligibility. To the team’s 201011 season of winning the Manitoba and Canadian
Championships, they added a repeat 2011-12 season
Manitoba championship. In itself, that was a rare
feat accomplished only three times in the over 25
years of Manitoba Senior Men’s sponsorship by the
Strathcona Trust (Howard Restall 2004 & 05, Barry Fry
1994 & 95, Norm Houck 1986 & 87).
But second, for Robertson and his team, that
Silver Medal will always be a reminder of one shot,
a shot that won Ireland its first ever World Curling
medal. Undefeated before the Gold Medal game
in Denmark, Team Robertson had the hammer
on the extra end in that final with Ireland (also
undefeated). Third Peter Prokopowich admitted later
that he thought they had the game won with two
shots to come. But as Robertson explains a great
last shot by the opposing skip changed things. It
was a last rock raise triple kill and stick by Irish skip
John Jo Kenny. “Sometimes,” Robertson said “it just
seems like a team is supposed to win.”
Even after that great shot, Robertson had a last
draw shot for victory but was slightly heavy to give
up a steal of one on his draw which had to bite the
four foot circle, territory Robertson had owned all
week. The Canadian team had fought back from a
4-1 deficit, after giving up a four on the fourth end,
and led 5-4 after seven. A one for Ireland on the
home end set up the extra end dramatics.
A
Robertson shared his feelings shortly after
the game with a writer for the World Curling
Federation’s website. He said, “It’s like the wind has
been sucked right out of me. They played a good
game – we gave up a four ender which was a little
hard to take but we came back. It was a hell of a
game. Actually, he made a great shot with his first
one in the extra end. If mine heads a little bit more
it’s like check-mate and he doesn’t have a shot. I
had the chance to win it with a draw, I’ve had draw
weight all week, but it’s the way it goes I guess.”
The loss ended a remarkable two-year run for
Robertson, Armour, Prokopowich and Scales who
played seven championship events, only once losing
more than one game in an event. In their first season,
they lost their opening game at the McDiarmid Lumber
Bonspiel to qualify, were undefeated from there to
the end of the provincials, and lost only once at the
Canadian Championship. To qualify for the Worlds,
their 2010-11 record was 27 wins and 2 losses.
In their second season, Team Robertson were
undefeated in the Strathcona Senior Men’s spiel to
qualify for a provincial championship in which they
only lost once. They finished 6-5 at the Canadian
Championship. Their 7-1 World record made for a
record of 50 wins and 9 losses to win two Manitoba
Men’s titles, a Canadian championship, and a World
Silver medal. Impressive!

MCA Bonspiel celebrates 125 years
he Grey Cup has been an annual Canadian
sports celebration for 100 years.
The Stanley Cup was awarded first in 1893 and is
now called an annual affair, although in the early years
it was a challenge trophy played for more than once
annually. It also has not been awarded twice: 1919
due to the flu epidemic and 2005 due to the lockout.
These two Canadian Sport institutions may have
the greatest profile these days but the annual MCA
Bonspiel had already been running for several years
when Lord Stanley presented hockey’s most famous
trophy and for over three decades when Earl Grey
provided Canadian football’s prestigious trophy.
And lest Manitoba curlers be too vain about the
long history of our bonspiel, it bears noting that
t
32
Newfoundland’s Royal St. John’s Regatta, which
dates to at least 1816 and was probably held earlier
than that, is North America’s longest running annual
sporting event.
Actually 125 years marks the 2013 birth date of
the Manitoba Branch of the Royal Caledonian Curling
Club (RCCC). According to the records, a bonspiel
had been held at Winnipeg for several years before
seven Manitoba clubs joined forces in an association
and at that first meeting they resolved to hold a
‘grand bonspiel’.
The clubs included two in Winnipeg, Granite
and Thistle, and five rural community curling
organizations. These were Stony Mountain,
Stonewall, Morden, Portage la Prairie and Carberry.
Their official first meeting was December 6, 1888.
This means, of course, the 125th birthday party of
the Association should be celebrated on December
6, 2013 during the Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings Canadian Curling Trials.
The first bonspiel under the auspices of the
Manitoba Branch of the RCCC was staged in
March, 1899, making the 2013 bonspiel the
125th organized by the Manitoba Branch and the
subsequent organizations, the Manitoba Curling
Association and CurlManitoba.
In the early years, the bonspiel was deemed to
be an unofficial world championship as curlers from
across Canada and the northern United States came
to Winnipeg to play the best curlers in Manitoba
and from other jurisdictions.
As early as 1903, it became a truly international
event when a group of curlers came from Scotland
for a tour of games across Eastern Canada and
the northern United States ending at the bonspiel
in Winnipeg.
Manitobans also played a key role in the
establishment of the Macdonalds Brier, a national
championship for curling. But that did not happen
until 1927, nearly 30 years after the start of the
MCA Bonspiel.
The great names in Manitoba curling are a part
of the lore and legend of the bonspiel. Curling Hallof-Famers Robert Dunbar, Howard Wood Sr., Gordon
Hudson, Ken Watson, Jimmy Welsh, Billy Walsh, Don
Duguid, Vic Peters, Jeff Stoughton and Kerry Burtnyk
are names which show up regularly in the bonspiel’s
records. In the early years, a bonspiel championship
was proof a team had reached the pinnacle. As the
decades passed, it was an event where teams honed
their skills. It was a stepping stone to greater things.
Numerous as may be the names of the
Manitoba legends whose names are engraved on
bonspiel trophies, as numerous are the names of
curlers whose one moment of glory came with
a victory in the bonspiel’s main events, possibly
earning them the prestigious Grand Aggregate
trophy. Even more numerous are the names of
curlers whose names are engraved only once on
other bonspiel trophies for those are the club
curlers, the once or twice-a-weekers who, for a
week, played among and against the best and won.
The longest running annual bonspiel in the world,
and still deemed to be the world’s largest, the MCA
Bonspiel attracted a Guinness record 1,280 teams
for the 100th anniversary bonspiel in 1988. That
number did not include the additional entries in
Senior events.
The first bonspiel attracted 62 entries and
passed 100 entries when the 10th bonspiel in 1898
attracted 101 teams. In 1912, at 251, the bonspiel
was over 200 for the first time. The 50th bonspiel
in 1938 set a record at 346; the 75th in 1963 set
another record with 680 entries.
Entries went over 800 for the first time when
the 1985 bonspiel attracted 848 entries in the
build-up to the 100th anniversary. Entries dropped
back after the big year and in 1994, entries
were capped at 512. They stayed at that number
for a decade. In the decade since, the entry
number declined to 352 in 2012. While small by
comparison with that record of 25 years earlier,
it is still a remarkable accomplishment to bring
together this many teams and this many curlers for
one bonspiel.
For the 125th bonspiel, entries will again be capped
at 512 and for the last time, in tribute to 125 years
of history, the bonspiel will be played as a men’s only
event. In 2014 and beyond, the annual MCA Bonspiel
must evolve if it wishes to be relevant in Manitoba
curling in the years ahead. What form that evolution
will take remains to be seen.
In the meantime, from January 17-21, 2013 the
ice in 25 Winnipeg and nearby community curling
centres will once again provide opportunities
for all comers: the opportunity to play the game
in many clubs and under varying, sometimes
challenging, ice conditions; the opportunity to
walk on to the ice perhaps to find their opponent
is a champion whose exploits they have admired
for years; the opportunity to share the game they
love with others equally passionate about curling.
And when it is over, the last team standing
in the 125th annual MCA Bonspiel may well be
a Manitoba curling legend and past champion
joining Mike Riley (100th Grand Aggregate), Don
Duguid (75th Grand Aggregate), Ab Gowanlock
(50th Grand Aggregate), and Mac Braden (25th
Grand Aggregate).
But perhaps it will be some lesser known. Who
knows – perhaps it will be you!
Entries are open through the CurlManitoba
electronic entry process at www.curlmanitoba.org.

o’grady Challenge
recap of seasons 2010-11 and 2011-12
he beautiful O’Grady Trophy presented for
the first time in Winnipeg back in 1908, is
on display in the Manitoba Curling Hall-of-Fame.
The O’Grady has been in continuous competition
ever since, and challenges are governed by Trustees
on behalf of CurlManitoba, and are open to all
affiliated curling clubs.
A record of every challenge is kept in log books
which travel with the holders, and each participant
receives a unique O’Grady competitor pin embossed
with the year of competition. A complete history
of the event, including results of all matches right
up to the end of last season, can be found on the
CurlManitoba website under “Other Competitions”.
The 2010-11 season began with match #1422
when Pembina CC (as holders from the prior year)
travelled to Morden where they defeated the boys
from Morden Curling Club.
December 19, 2010 featured a match with two
O’Grady Trustees – Don Stewart from Manitou and
Ron Lloyd from Fort Garry – facing each other;
possibly the first time for such an occurrence. This
match happened at the end of the same week that
our fellow Trustee Jim Sproule passed away. Jim
must have been pulling for Don, as the boys from
Manitou defeated the Fort Garry teams. After the
match and a friendly hour, a delicious roast beef
dinner was served to all, before the Fort Garry boys
headed home to Winnipeg.
A highlight of this season was a great run by the
Elmwood Club in their 100th anniversary year. In
match #1431 they hosted and defeated Treherne, and
then went on to win five more matches before being
stopped by Beausejour. Congratulations fellows!
The sad part of the season was the passing of Jim
Sproule of Thistle – an O’Grady Trustee for 15 years.
Jim’s main ambition when coming on board was
to compile and make available all of the statistics
from some 1,400 match sheets. One of the benefits
of Jim’s efforts is that each curling club now has a
complete list of all the players who represented them
over the past 100+ years of O’Grady competition. Jim
t
34
also championed Col.
O’Grady’s election
into the Hall-of-Fame
in 2010.
Two new Trustees,
Ron Margolis of
Charleswood (first
O’Grady appearance
in 1999) and Rod
MacKay of Fort Garry (first O’Grady appearance in
2005), both past directors of the provincial curling
association, joined Ron Lloyd and Don Stewart in
2010, to help steward the O’Grady competition in the
years ahead.
2011-12 began with the Granite as holders,
and the season included the first every appearance
by the Argyle Curling Club – who challenged and
hosted Selkirk. Unfortunately for Argyle, the Selkirk
boys were in the midst of an 11 match run that
finally ended in Morden at the end of February, and
also included travels to Teulon, Treherne, Glenboro,
Carberry, Hartney, and Roland, as well as three visits
to Winnipeg clubs.
Other multiple winners during the season
included Portage and Morden.
At season’s end, the O’Grady title was held by the
Pembina club, who coincidentally won their very first
challenge for the O’Grady trophy back in March of
1962 – almost exactly 50 years ago. Pembina carried
the “O’Grady briefcase” containing travelling plaque
and log book to match #1462 at the home of the
next season’s first challenger in the fall of 2012.

My experience at the 2012
winter youth olympic games
anuary 13, 2012. It is hard to describe the
feeling of walking into Bergisal Stadium in
Innsbruck, Austria, together with 1,100 athletes from
70 countries, in front of 15,000 spectators for the
opening ceremonies of the first ever Winter Youth
Olympic Games. Unbelievable, a dream come true, and
surreal are just a few thoughts that come to mind.
Participating in the first ever Winter Youth
Olympic Games in January 2012 was an experience
I will never forget. My teammates, from all parts
of Canada, and fellow curling competitors, aged
14-18 from 16 countries, all shared the same goal.
We wanted to win an Olympic medal, but equally
wanted to learn about each other and enjoy the
wonderful opportunity we had been given. There
was a true sense of sportsmanship and friendship
amongst the athletes.
Participating in an Olympics means you are not only
part of your own sports team but a member of the
whole Canadian Olympic team. Two of my roommates
J
were hockey players and I remember being as excited
for them when they won their bronze medal as I was
when our curling team won ours.
Winning a bronze medal, in a drama filled game
against a great Swedish team, is something I will
remember for the rest of my life. It was an honour
to find out that in winning bronze, it became the
first ever medal won by Canada at a Youth Olympic
Games, summer or winter. Our Canadian team went
on to win nine medals in total in Innsbruck.
Although winning a medal was the ultimate
highlight, the lasting international friendships and
overall experience of participating in an Olympics
was far more valuable. The International Olympic
Committee decided to create Youth Olympic Games
(YOG), with the vision of a new event designed to
inspire young people all around the world to do
sport and adopt and live by the Olympic Values of
Excellence, Respect and Friendship. I can tell you from
my experience they succeeded with flying colours!
