On behalf of the Canadian Curling Association’s board of governors, it is our privilege to share this inaugural CCA Annual Report with you. This publication will annually tell our story and share our successes. It is one of many firsts that the CCA has enjoyed over the past few years, a time in which we have met and overcome some of the greatest challenges in our long history. In 2007, the CCA unanimously adopted the Policy Governance © model, a method by which the board of governors engages its members and communicates their collective vision, values and priorities to management, who in turn develop and deliver programs and services for the benefit of the Canadian curling community. At the same time, the CCA found itself in a desperate financial position that threatened not only its work but its very existence. A new governance philosophy, coupled with sound fiscal principles and the incredible effort of CCA management, resulted in the complete elimination of the deficit and what is today a seven-figure, long-term financial reserve. Such a quick turnaround is unprecedented in Canadian amateur sport and was the result of strong fundamentals and a total team effort. Those same principles power our top teams in their quest to compete and win Olympic gold for Canada. The competitive bar has been raised and as the focus of the world turns to Vancouver in February, our teams have never been more committed and neither has the CCA. Canada and the world will be tuned into an unprecedented amount of curling on television and we are hard at work to leverage that Olympic experience in all curling realms, from athletes to clubs to fans. We are excited about the future of curling and will work hard to ensure it remains one of Canada’s greatest sports! We hope you enjoy this first comprehensive CCA Annual Report!

Yours in curling,
