Men’s bonspiel kicks of Friday, March 14

Winfield Curling Club's annual Men’s Bonspiel has 32 teams participating.

Congratulations to Team BC for placing second at the Brier in Kamloops.

The Alberta team is the Canadian Men’s Champion and will be off to the Men’s Worlds.

There was some pretty amazing shot making from all the teams and I had the honour of watching Team BC vs Ontario and Manitoba as well.

Team BC dominated Ontario but had to go an extra end against Manitoba’s Stoughton, losing by one in the eleventh end.

The Brier Patch was pretty fun as everyone watches the two big screens they have set up, or the on stage show every evening.

If you did manage to take in some Brier games you know what I mean by fun.

Back at the Winfield Curling Club, congratulations go to Team Tetlock for winning Monday night men’s league, Team Picco for coming first in the Tuesday night ladies league, and the Laface foursome for dominating Thursday night men’s league.

The last round of play-offs is this week and has Laface playing Nagel, and Siegmann curling against Hughes. The winners of these two games will play each other to determine a grand champion on Wednesday.

Then, two days later our annual Men’s Bonspiel kicks off on Friday, March 14 and runs till Sunday, March 16, with 32 teams participating.

Good luck to all teams and don’t forget to have some fun.

That’s it for this week and good curling.
