Junior Program
The North Hill Curling Club’s Junior Program is offered during the regular curling season on Fridays starting at 4:30 p.m. The age range for this program is 7 through 18 with instruction for both little rock and regular rock curlers.
Younger curlers with little to no experience are provided with coaching throughout the season. More experienced curlers who throw regular rocks, are initially instructed and then curl in 2-hour time slots from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
Instruction and coaching continues throughout the season as needed.
