Hello Everyone,

And just like that we are into a new year and a new competition, the Lymphoy Cup. As before, here are the teams for this half of the season:

Happy curling everyone! Also, I am labelling all the competitions now (I started with the Kettle from this year) so on the website you'll be able to find posts for specific competitions a little easier. I can only do this from now on not on historical pieces unfortunately but hopefully it helps someone.

Kettle Round 7 - Final Results!

Well, well, well. What a final few games that was to finish the first half of the season, bringing the Kettle competition 23/24 to a close.

Played in January rather than the Kettle finishing before Christmas due to the late start to the season, I think the wait just added to the tension!

It was a close run competition towards the end, with 3 out of the 4 games mattering. 2 of the leaders, John Steven and Katie Wood were up against each other. Unfortunately, Katie wasn't able to play, and although her rink fought valiantly, John Steven came out on top. On other rinks, Karen Munro needed a win against Shona Watt to remain in contention for a trophy, but unfortunately, a peel was all she could manage. Brian Fleming was up against Dave Munro, who wasn't in with a chance of the win (sorry Dad!). Brian narrowly won, probably due to Dave focussing more on socialising with the Strathcona lot. So with 2 teams on 10 points, it came down to ends, and with a peel in ends, it was John's 20 shots up against Brian's 7 that clinched the victory. 

So the winning team of the Kettle Trophy 23/24 was:

John Steven

Jenny Barr

Sarah Ford

Sheena Munro (Mum/see Dad, its important to have a focussed skip!)

Winners of the Harlaw Cup (Runners up)

Brian Fleming
