Novice, Junior, and Open Coaching

We have coaching sessions booked for Sunday 23rd September and Sunday 18th November 2012, both from 8pm.
These sessions are open to anyone wanting to Come & Try Curling, Juniors and all Leads/Seconds and will consist of practise and coaching.
Please note that places are limited, if you want to come along please email or text Graeme beforehand. (details are on the Contact Us tab, above)

Opening Bonspiel

The season has now officially started at the newly decorated Murrayfield.
For the records Shelagh's team was beaten by Andy's team by 6 shots to 4, with our newest player narrowly missing his shots as skip and bringing 'oohs' and 'aahs' enough to make those on the next rink pay attention.
On the other sheet Graeme's rink beat Simon's by 7 shots to 4.
Dont know what the 7 represents Sheena.
Sheena Munro wishes it noted that under her 2 end stint as skip more shots were amassed than by any other skip.
I am therefore proud to announce Sheena as the winner of the Bonspiel !
After the game we retreated to the bar and to sample the delights of Bruce and Lorette's catering (Bill & Anne having retired at the end of last season).
The evening was a very relaxed one with friends, old & new, enjoying the chat as much as the game.
With that under our belt we can now look forward to the more serious stuff...........

Come & Try session

Sunday 16th September saw our first Come & Try Session of the season.
We had 5 newcomers and Steven who had attended a C&T 2 years ago with coaching from John Good assisted by the lovely Graeme.
The session went well and everyone that was there seemed to have a good time and said that there was a high likelihood that they would give it another shot.  As usual we finished up with a small 3 end game.
Thanks to everyone that came.
Jane ( a friend of Gill's)
Jim & Moira, from Grahams the Jeweller in Haddington (where our trophies are engraved)
Ronnie & Morag (Graeme's brother and sister-in-law)
and Steven, who is on our reserves list and will be playing in the Opening Bonspiel and in the 3 Rennie trophy games in October.
