Season 25-26 News

Following an invitation, Haddington is entering a team in the Monday Night Coronation League.  This will run on 14 nights throughout the season.  Our team will provisionally be headed by Morgan Nicoll.

Our Points Competition will be pushed back later in the season to a Saturday in February, to give everyone a chance to get their eye in !   As a trial, it will be run at the same time as Aberlady's Points and will share the ice.

Ice is currently being booked and over the next couple of months this website will be getting its summer clean in preparation for next season. 

Anyone wishing to join should act asap and contact Shelagh or myself.

Provisionally, the season will commence with our Wednesday 8th October with a Rennie League game.  The following Wednesday 15-10-25 should be our Opening Bonspiel and Supper (both dates tbc)

Other games will be confirmed when the ice is finally confirmed.

 Have a good and safe summer.

East Lothian Bonspiel

 

A huge congratulations to our team that contested and WON the Elco Cup (and other bits of silverware) at the East Lothian Province Bonspiel.  After a big win in their first game, they were in second place which meant that they were up against the first round leaders.  A second win saw them draw clear on shots and take the title.

Congratulations to Sandy Nicoll,  Andy Aberdein, Keith Anderson and Richard Taylor

Skins 2025

Sandy & Family

 An all family affair with Sandy, The Wingate winner taking on his father, Morgan, the Rennie Winner.

After the ,now traditional, trying to understand the rules, battle commenced.  It was interesting to note that of the five times 'skins' were won twice was with the hammer and three times without.  Sandy was publicly claiming that his ambition was to win a single skin (which he had failed to do against his only previous skins outing).  It should be noted that, his play did not indicate this modest ambition, and with one of his 'spirited' sweeping efforts, shattered the head of his broom !

With no winners in the first end Sandy struck and took 2 skins (with a rollover) in the second end.  Morgan struck back with his own 2 skins in the next end. After the fifth end Dad was leading by 5 - 4 with 3 skins available for the next end, which wasn't won.  This left, including the rollover, 7 skins on offer for the final end with Morgan being the slight favourite having shed the 'hammer' to his laddie.

Meantime the thirds were conspiring to make the skips have to 'draw the shot' to determine a winner. 

With Sandy sitting with a 1 he needed to bite the eight foot with his final stone to take the skins and the win. Unfortunately the whole of the house was well guarded, so he had to make a very wide draw with only a small section of the house available to him.  He played onto the tee line and made the shot.

So it is congratulations to Sandy Nicoll, Graeme Maguire, Richard Taylor and Heather Harpur as worthy winners.
