Competitive League week 1

Opening night of the league saw some good games and a huge surprise, Derek and Charrissa did not win. Well, they had the bye so I guess they did not lose either.

Nine teams make up the league this year with mostly the same players. A few new faces have joined the crowd. Ann Karrick and Donn Malner joining Team Alward. Donn is a new member who is returning to curling after a bit of a layoff. Nice looking tuck slide Donn. Team Alward took on Team Mannik and gave them a run for the money, making Steve make the final shot in the eighth to win.

Team Chebetar took it to Team Haggis (T. Smith) and handed them an early season loss. Maybe not enough haggis before the game.

Team J. Smith handed Team Bagley a loss as well. Those Canadians just seem to get started easier plus he has been throwing a lot of rocks.

Team Hannon staged a furious comeback against Team Purkey/Stannard to pull out the win. Falling behind 5-0 after two ends, Team Hannon stole their way back to the lead and finished it off at the end.

Rob Chebetar is providing some tasty treats these days as he practices his baking skills and brings the results to the club. Bacon, cheddar biscuits, scones, corn bread.....yum yum.

Interesting match up next week, battle of the Smiths as Joseph takes on Terry.

Run with the big dogs or stay on the porch.
