@cullenoncurling The non slam events in Canada (and in particular Ontario events) are all stacked with Slam teams. In last years Henderson metals, Oakville and Shorty, the only “u25” team to make playoffs once was Mooibroek. Other sports aren’t age based but points based. Maybe thats what we need
@cullenoncurling Other sports have development paths. AHL, OHL over agers, D league, minor league baseball, even football has players staying in NCAA until they are mid 20s. Curling might be the only sport that when you’re 21 you’re playing against top level pros or you’re effectively out.
@cullenoncurling The jump from junior to senior curling in Canada is brutal. Young teams spend years paying $10K+ in entry fees and travel just to lose regularly to established teams. Without a U25 circuit where they can compete, many simply walk away. That gap is hurting our development pipeline
Canada existed long before any of us got here.
It will exist long after we're gone.
Those who came before us overcame many challenges to shape Canada into what it is today.
Now is our moment to stand on guard.

@TSNVicRauter They probably need a second/third. No disrespect to some of the names listed but unless you’ve been playing a tonne at a very high level it’s not going to go well sweeping as much as they will be. Also, if Glenn is out won’t they need two players (the second player being a spare)
Athletes who place in the top-12 in the individual events and top-three in the synchro events at worlds will lock up spots for their country at the Olympic Games 👀 https://t.co/GXabi2RbdE
