                                  Highlander Curling Club Junior Bonspiel 2019

                                  On December 14, the Highlander Curling Club hosted a Junior Bonspiel.  Six teams participated and each team played three six end games.  Two teams were from Bluenose Curling Club in New Glasgow , one was from Chedabucto Curling Club in Boylston and three were from our home club.

                                  In the first draw, Team Page (Bluenose) defeated Team Thibodeau (Highlander) 11-7.  Two teams from Highlander clashed with Team Lazzuri beating Team Smith 8-5.  Team Higdon (Bluenose) edged Team Grady(Chedabucto) 6-5 on the last shot of the game.

                                  During the second draw, Team Smith and Page played to a 9-9 draw.  Team Grady beat the Lazzuri Rink 11-2 and Team Higdon beat Team Thibodeau 11-3.

                                  The last draw of the afternoon saw Team Smith fall to Team Higdon 5-8, with an exceptional shot by Skip Jack Higdon taking  out two rocks with the hammer to score three in the final end.  Team Grady got a win over Team Page 14-3 and Team Lazzuri bested Team Thibodeau 8-3. 

                                  The shot of the Spiel was made by Skip Ryker Thibodeau who executed a perfect draw to the pin by coming around three center line guards to out count the opposition stone covering the back part of the button.   Thayden Power won the most sportsmanlike.

                                  Thanks to Jim Marlow and Wayne Richard for doing the ice before the event and also to Wayne, John Cameron and Chris Higdon who helped do the ice in the afternoon.  Daan Verkoeijen and Clare Lazzuri operated the kitchen and kept the curlers fed at lunch and snack time.  Thanks as well to all the Highlander Curling Parents  who brought food and snacks. 

                                  It was a great day of curling.  Some amazing shots were made by many of the curlers.  The level of sportsmanship was exceptional and everyone would have been proud of how all the curlers handled themselves out on the ice. 

                                  Lastly, thanks to everyone, family, friends and curling fans who came to watch and cheer on the curlers.  It was a great day of junior curling that we hope to repeat in the near future and our club and at other Junior Bonspiels in Northeastern Nova Scotia!

                                  The 55+ games curling committee would like to thank all the volunteers who helped make last weekend's tournament a success. There has been lots of praise directed toward the Highlander club for their hospitality, good food and great ice and none of that would be possible without our volunteers. Thanks again

                                  Check out the beautiful new sign at the back of the rink!!

                                  The new sign is the brainchild of club member Roy Lawlor (on right) who contacted club member Rob Thompson (on left) over the summer to initiate the project.  Rob, who works at Steelmac (External link opens in new tab or windowhttps://steelmac.net/), collaborated with Roy to finalize the design of the sign, which was cut on their new plasma table.


                                  A special thanks to the Owner of Steelmac Aaron MacDonald, who donated the components and construction costs of the sign.

                                  Highlander Junior Program Wraps Up 2018-2019 Season


                                  On March 30,  fifteen curlers from our Junior Program attended the New Glasgow Junior Bonspiel at the Bluenose Curling Club.  We had two teams in U13 and two at the U19 level.

                                   

                                  Our curlers were:
                                   
                                  (U13) Team Thibodeau (Sam Lazzuri, Colin MacNeil, Brody MacNeil and Ryker Thibodeau)
                                  (U13) Team Verkoeijen (Rowan Stewart, Thayden Power, Simon Nicholson, Sanne Verkoeijen)
                                  (U19)  Team Nicholson (Tessa Pelrine, Joe Lazzuri, David Nicholson)
                                  (U19) Team Halloran (Brooklyn Jordan, Nathaniel Smith, Ryan Sangster, Aidan Halloran)
                                   
                                  Team Halloran placed 2nd overall and Team Verkoeijen was 3rd.  Most importantly, our curlers had lots of fun playing other teams from the Bluenose and New Caledonia Curling Clubs.
                                   
                                  We look forward to hosting and playing more games against these clubs in the 2019-2020 season!
                                   
                                  As our regular season winds down I should relate that we had a very successful year-- we had 35 curlers in our Junior Program, split between U13 and U19 ages.  Each week we worked on skills  and gameplay all the while having fun and learning about curling.    The success of the program rests squarely with my assistants, who each week helped deliver the program to the curlers.  Nathaniel Smith, Victoria Rankin and Evan Perry were amazing to work with and I know the kids loved interacting with them.
                                   
                                  Thanks goes out as well to the Curling Club Board of Directors who have continued to support this program.  Junior Curling is bringing in lots of new young people to the sport of curling, all of whom I hope will continue to play curling in the years to come.

                                  Highlander Curling Club Junior Bonspiel

                                  On December 15, the Highlander Curling Club held a Junior Bonspiel with Teams in attendance from the Bluenose, Highlander and Chedabucto Curling Club.  Lots of friends and family were on hand to cheer our youngest curlers on as they played their games.

                                   

                                  Each game was 5 ends long and full of excitement and great shot making.  The overall winners of the Tournament were from the Bluenose Curling Club.  Team members from the New Glasgow based rink included:  Jack Higdon, Conrad Roberston, Joe O'Neil, Cullen Park and Ben Hingley.
                                   

                                  Congratulations to all the participants.  It was a great learning experience for our teams and lots of fun was had.  A big thank you goes out to Jim Marlow and Wayne Richard for having the ice in tip-top shape.  Also thanks to the parents of our curlers who brought food, got the kitchen ready and helped clean up afterwards.  Couldn't have had as good a bonspiel without you!
