  • 1 Curling Club Championship Eligibility
    Curling Club Championship Eligibility Requirements The Curling Club Championships Rules have been updated allowing Member Associations flexibility in staging their championships and reducing any interpretation of eligibility. The principles of this event target non-elite teams (grassroots club curlers) who regularly compete in their clubs. Teams, however, are no longer limited to being the club champion to be considered eligible. The changes will allow Member Associations to control the number of entries in their jurisdictions. For example, Curl Sask prefers to allow any eligible team to enter the regional playdowns. Or, Curl ON prefers to restrict the number of entries per club to a maximum of one. Either is acceptable. Curling Club Championship Eligibility Requirements We trust all curling rinks will respect the intent of the spirit of the Curling Club Championships by engaging their members to participate and to represent their curling club in any process leading to the provincial / territorial championships and ultimately, leading to the Canadian Curling Club Championships. The event was created for true club-based teams. The objective is to support the development of grassroots curling across Canada. Here are the eligibility requirements for events leading to the national Curling Club Championships. Curling Canada reserves the right to exclude any team that violates the spirit and intent of this event as it pertains to the rules below. 1) Participating curling clubs must be affiliated with its Provincial / Territorial Curling Association. They must be in good standing with all applicable dues to the Association paid in full. 2) Any competitor (including 5th players and spares) must be members in good standing of an affiliated curling club for the duration of the process.

  • 13, Calisto Dufrense Defends the AWA World Heavyweight Championship Against the World Television Champion Glenn Hudson
    Saturday Night Wrestling March 7th, 2015 Crockett Coliseum Dallas, Texas [We start on a black screen as most shows do. We fade up into a royal blue screen with a glittering silver Fox Sports logo in the center of it. A fanfare plays in the background as a voiceover begins.] “Home to the World Series. The GFC. The Daytona 500. The 2015 Women’s World Cup. The US Open Championship.” [A quick clip from each sport flashes by during the voiceover.] “The world’s biggest events are on Fox Sports.” [The logo and fanfare fade... ...as a giant robot appears, holding up a different version of the Fox Sports logo with the audio bug...] “WE ARE... FOX SPORTS!” [The shot fades from the graphic to another black screen with the AWA logo splashed across a starry field. A barrage of lasers flash in from all sides of the screen, etching along the borders of the letters, illuminating the plain white text into glowing and glittering gold. A deep voiceover begins. The words "American Wrestling Alliance" come up one by one at the bottom of the screen.] "The recognized symbol of excellence in professional wrestling." [The logo fades as the sounds of “Monuments” by the Smashing Pumpkins begins to play. The synth and drumline leads the way as the screen fills with Bobby O’Connor sailing through the air, cracking Hamilton Graham with the Fear The Reaper followed by The Gladiator gorilla pressing a helpless foe into the sky.] #I feel alright, I feel all right tonight.# [Supernova comes tearing across the ring from corner-to-corner, flinging himself into the air and

  • The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player
    Vol.1 No. 7 The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player (a subsidiary of TRUE NORTH CURLING INC.) PRESENTS THE COACHING SERIES… “A PANE IN THE GLASS” Foreword by Bill Tschirhart It is a pleasure for True North Coaching to publish an essay by someone who very likely never dreamed he’d be the coach of an Olympic champion. Sometimes the best things in life happen when we least anticipate they might. Such is the case with Toby McDonald. Until the Torino Winter Olympic Games, his most notable curling achievement by far was a Brier title in 1976 as the mate for Jack MacDuff. It is still Newfoundland & Labrador’s only Brier championship but when Brad Gushue needed a coach for his team’s run at the Curling Trials leading to the Torino Winter Olympic Games, Toby was the one the team wanted and a great choice it was! By now, several books have been written about Team Gushue’s Gold Medal performance in Torino and I’m personally pleased that many of the authors have noted the contribution Toby made. All was not blue skies and roses for Team Canada during those Olympic Games and had it not been for the expertise of Toby, the result might have been very different! Toby sent this essay to me several months ago re. the role of the fifth player and how to ultimately select someone for this most misunderstood position. I asked if he might allow me to publish it in the “A Pane in the Glass” series which he graciously has done.

  • Curling Club Championship Eligibility Requirements 2019-20
    Curling Club Championship Eligibility Requirements 2019-20 The principles of this event target non-elite teams (grassroots club curlers) who regularly compete in their clubs. Teams, however, are no longer limited to being the club champion to be considered eligible. Curling Club Championship Eligibility Requirements-effective November 1, 2019 We trust all curling rinks will respect the intent and spirit of the Curling Club Championships by engaging their members to participate and to represent their curling club in any process leading to the provincial/territorial championships and ultimately, leading to the Canadian Curling Club Championships. The event was created for true club-based teams. The objective is to support the development of grassroots curling across Canada. Here are the eligibility requirements for the events leading to the national Curling Club Championships scheduled for November 22-28, 2020. Curling Canada reserves the right to exclude any team that violates the spirit and intent of this event as it pertains to the rules below. 1) Participating curling clubs must be affiliated with its Provincial / Territorial Association. They must be in good standing with all applicable dues to the Association paid in full. 2) Any competitor (including 5th players and spares) must be members in good standing of an affiliated curling club and, subsequently, the Provincial/Territorial Association. 3) A competitor is not required to be a Canadian citizen. Page 1 of 6 4) A 5th player may compete at any level of competition including the Canadian Championships. If they play, they must play the traditional lead position throwing the first two stones of any and all ends for their team and sweeping delivered stones numbered 3-8.
