Recently we’ve had a number of incidents where hands or knees left on the ice have caused small pits and soft spots. They might not look like much, but they affect how stones run and create extra work for our ice team.

We’d really appreciate everyone’s help by:
• Avoiding resting hands, knees or elbows directly on the ice
• Standing up as soon as you safely can if you slip or fall, unless you have a head or other serious injury
• Using your brush or stabiliser for support where possible

We know accidents happen – this isn’t about telling anyone off, just a friendly reminder so we can all enjoy the best possible playing surface.

Thanks for helping us keep the ice in great condition for every game! 🥌

Congratulations to Team Christie on winning the Anna Smith League. They finished level on points with Gargunnock but had two more ends so clinched the title on the last game. Thanks to all the teams taking part in this Curl Stirling Women’s League. If you are interested in taking part next season, as a club or a team, please get in touch. Details on the “contact us” section of the website.
