Goldline Curling English Version
2017 VANIER COLLEGE BDC GOLDLINE CURLING ENGLISH VERSION SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2017 CHRISTOPHER A. ROSS JOHN MOLSON SCHOOL OF BUSINESS CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY ©2016 Christopher A. Ross P a g e | 1 GOLDLINE CURLING INTRODUCTION September 12th, 2016 was an important day for Mr. Doug Flowers, President, Goldline Curling (GC), Toronto, Canada. After approximately two and half years of development, he had taken delivery of 48 samples of a new and modern curling brush1, the AIR, replacing an old model that GC had been marketing for the past twenty years. GC finally had a new product that could be used by elite players in various curling tournaments. This new product was GC’s response to the 2011 introduction by Hardline Curling (Hardline) of a competitive “revolutionary” curling brush. The fabric covering the head of this brush had significantly altered the nature of the game. In 2014, GC began taking the competitive threat seriously but after much controversy in the curling world regarding the “revolutionary” curling brush, Flowers was wondering whether he was on the right track with his competitive response, and if he was, what strategy should he use to launch the AIR in the Canadian and global markets. Launching the new product was an extremely important decision for Flowers since brushes contributed 25% to GC’s annual revenue. THE GAME OF CURLING2 The game of Curling was played on ice. Players used three major pieces of equipment: a brush, a granite rock and special shoes when throwing the rock and sweeping the ice. The brush had three parts: the shaft, which ideally should be very light, the plastic head, and the foam pad that fit into the head and was covered with fabric.

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.

rolex anD golf forever golf Rolex is committed to the permanent quest for excellence in all its activities and has been a long-term supporter of golf in its pursuit of the same. The brand’s enduring relationship with the game began more than 50 years ago, in 1967, with Arnold Palmer, joined by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Known together as The Big Three, these legendary players changed the face of golf forever, and their partnership with Rolex marked the beginning of a relationship based on a commitment to continuous im- provement and unwavering precision. Since then, the affiliation between Rolex and golf has grown into one with a global reach. Rolex is now part of the very fabric of golf and supports the game at all levels, including elite players and legends of the game, Major cham- pionships, the foremost professional tours and the world’s leading team competitions. Rolex’s support for golf is governed by underlying values of integrity and respect for tradition that ensure the continuity of exper- tise and knowledge, while understanding the importance of investing in the development of sport for future generations. As such, the Swiss watchmaker extends its support to amateur tournaments, international federations and organizations representing golfers of all ages. The as- sociation between Rolex and golf stands for quality, elegance, reliability and a pioneering spirit. Please note that the following information is in line with the “traditional” golfing calendar. However, given the extraordinary circumstances that have impacted the entire world in 2020, the dates of some of these events are most likely to have changed and/or will be changed.
