New to curling or just returning? This is the league for you. We focus on fun and comradery while learning the game in a safe and helpful setting. 

Returning curlers will be billed their Membership Fees separately.

This league has two sessions with 10 weeks each. The first session starts in October and wraps up in December. The second session begins in January and finishes at the end of March.  Participants may enter one or both sessions. There are spaces for 48 novices joined by 18 volunteer coaches.  Curlers with  three years or less experience or individuals recently returning to curling after a long break are considered novices for this league.
 
The first week new curlers learn to deliver stones, and in the following  five weeks the novices are placed on teams with one volunteer coach. The coaches are arranged in alternating positions of third or skip, so that there is an experienced curler at both ends of the sheet at all times. The teams are shuffled after five games. If registrants request to be kept with a partner they are placed on teams together.  Forty-five  minute theory sessions are offered prior to each on-ice game at 6:40 - 7:25pm  in the conference room. Topics covered include  instructional videos as well as discussions on basic rules, vocabulary, etiquette, scoreboard, sweeping, signals, weight calls,  equipment,  stone release, team communication, measuring,  basic strategy, and many other topics.
