2012-2013 CCA Annual Report 2 2012 | 13 CCA ANNUAL REPORT MISSION To encourage and facilitate the growth and development of curling in co-operation with our network of affiliates. VISION In the year 2010 and beyond, curling in Canada — from the grassroots to the highest levels of competitive play — will be strong and vibrant. Curling clubs and associations in Canada will offer a wide variety of participation opportunities for all residents of their communities. Opportunities to participate will reflect the changing needs of the cultural mosaic and lifestyles of Canadians, and allow for a healthy cross-section of recreational through competitive play. Furthermore, the management practices of clubs, member associations and the CCA will parallel those of successful businesses by always keeping the best interests of curlers in mind. 2012 | 13 CCA ANNUAL REPORT 3 MESSAGE FROM THE CHIE It is always a privilege to showcase the achievements and improvements that the Canadian Curling Association, as the governing body for curling in Canada, has accomplished. With that in mind, the CCA is grateful to have been successful on multiple platforms this past year and it is my pleasure to highlight some of these elements. Curling Assistance Program With continued financial stability, the CCA was once again able to allocate a portion of its surplus revenue to provide unique financial assistance to the CCA’s membership, including its affiliated curling facilities and its provincial-territorial member associations. This funding — known as the Curling Assistance Program — targets projects designed to develop the sport at the community level and to assist capital projects critical to the operation and health of the CCA’s membership. Last year, approximately $255,000 was funded through CAP on both business development and bricks-and-mortar grants, assisting applicants in nine different provinces and territories. Podium Excellence Canadian curlers continued their podium excellence in 2012-13. Some exciting new young teams emerged as world contenders, with both the Canadian men’s and women’s national teams finding the podium on the world stage and with a very bright-looking future. This past year saw no fewer than six international podium finishes, including gold medals for our Canadian men’s and women’s senior teams and our world wheelchair team. Podium results also included a silver medal at the Ford World Men’s, bronze at the World Women’s Curling Championship and bronze for our world junior men’s team. I extend my sincere appreciation to all of the athletes who competed in major championships last year. Season Of Champions And Other Championships The most prolific curling events in the world make up the CCA’s Season of Champions. Each year, these tournaments are watched by millions of fans across Canada. This past year, we were fortunate to enjoy wonderful host venues for these events and exceptional volunteer support in every local community. The 2012-13 Season of Champions began in late November in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, with the Capital One Canada Cup, followed by the World Financial Group 4 2012 | 13 CCA ANNUAL REPORT GE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER STAFF & SUPPORT SERVICES Continental Cup in Penticton, British Columbia; the M&M Meat Shops Canadian Juniors in Fort McMurray, Alberta; the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Kingston, Ontario; and the Tim Hortons Brier in Edmonton.

HISTORY OF SPORT There is little evidence to firmly establish the birthplace of curling. Both Scotland and the “low countries” of Europe claim title. The earliest artefacts of the game are from the Scots, while the language common to curling can be traced to dialects spoken by the Flemish peoples of what is now Belgium. The stages of curling history are best traced by the development of curling stones. The earliest known stones, dating back to the 16th century, were called “Kuting Stones”. There were small niches scrapped into the stones for fingers to grip and hold. Stones were as small as 2 kilograms, or as large as 10 kilograms. In the mid- 17th century, handles began to appear with the early versions of curling stones. While handles allowed for greater control when throwing the stones, a wide variation in sizes and shapes of the stones still made it interesting to play. Before the current standard, shapes of stones included cones, ovals, squares, hexagons and others. Current stones weigh 18 kilograms of granite from the tiny Scottish island of Ailsa Craig was the material of choice for curling stones.
