If you are hosting a bonspiel or
league or are trying to start a league PLEASE SEND US YOUR CONTACT
INFORMATION to admin@stickcurling.ca
so that we may advertise your bonspiel and league on this site. As our
sport continues to grow we want to make it a fully sanctioned sport within
Canada and hope to someday bring the sport to Olympic status. To do this
we need to know how widespread our sport has become and be able to estimate the
number of participants in the sport. The information of your leagues and
bonspiels will help us gain this information.

INTRODUCTION:
Stick Curling is a new sport
which provides challenge and excitement for people of all ages on an equal and competitive
basis, and in a social atmosphere. Stick Curling is
also appropriate for people
with physical disabilities such as
knee,
back,
heart,
shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip,
ankle, or foot problems, or just simply advanced age. The rocks are
handled with a curling stick from a standing or sitting position (i.e.
wheelchairs) enabling everyone to participate competitively.
Stick Curling leagues using
the 2 Person Team Rules (See "Rules of Play")
have been starting throughout Canada and internationally. With all the benefits to the Clubs and
to the
Participants the rapid growth of Stick Curling should not be a surprise to anyone.
