STUFF THAT MAKES US CURL BETTER:
Etiquette
- Shake hands at the start and end of each game, and be respectful of your opponents. Don't distract the other team, and don't stand in front of a player who's about to throw.
Speed of play
- Try to start the game on time, and keep the game moving. Get ready to throw as soon as your opponent releases their stone, and clean your rock while they glide to a stop.
Sweeping
- Be ready to sweep as soon as your teammate releases their stone. Sweepers should stay between the hog lines when not sweeping.
RECIPES AROUND THE RINGS:

Send me your curling play of the week. What shot was incredible? What did you find amazing during your last game?

You are receiving this email because we made a clerical error in our online registration set-up process this year. Those members that registered and paid prior to July 1st were affected by this error.
You were not charged HST on your prize levy, which you should have been. We apologize for this error and any inconvenience it may have caused you.
The challenge for us now is our system has put accounts on hold until the balance is paid. This means that you will not be able to book practice ice or book make-up ice.
The outstanding balances are between $3.00 and $13.00 depending on how many leagues you registered for. We apologize if this has affected you in any way.
To rectify, kindly click the following link to view your invoice and submit payment: Oakville Curling Club Invoice. You will need to log into the site.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to either Casey or me directly.
Warmest Regards
Ian Tetley

A big hello to all Weekend Mixed curlers. With Andrew moving on to assume the VP role on the OCC Board, I wanted to introduce myself as your new convenor and representative on the Board. Jan and I have curled in this league since 1997 and look forward to helping carry on the fun and fellowship we have experienced over the years.
Here are a few things you will want to know to plan for the coming year:
- Opening weekend will be Oct 18/19
- Draw 2 will include the weekend of Dec 20/21 and start up again on the January 10/11 weekend
- For those long-range planners, the Championship Weekend has been scheduled for April 4-6, 2025
- Based on feedback from the year end survey about the dreaded Saturday 9:00 PM slot, note that the club has revised Saturday draw times to 3:30pm, 5:45pm and 8:00 PM. Friday ice times will remain the same at 6:40 and 9:00 PM.
Registration has been robust with several newcomers joining the league. For those signed up as individuals or as a couple, over the next several weeks as other registrations roll in I’ll do my best to help you find a suitable team to enjoy the year with. If you haven’t already done so, please reach out to me with any information or requests that might help that process along. I’m also planning to have a Weekend Mixed table set up at the Open House on Sept 22nd to greet old friends and welcome newcomers. Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Directors will make motions related to the agenda topics as required. They will then ask for a second; if you would like to second the motion, please write “Second” in the chat function. The moderator will launch the poll, and you will see a pop-up window with the motion and the voting options and sufficient time will be allowed for attendees to vote. When the moderator host closes the poll, the moderator will announce the results of the poll.
Members are reminded that:
- If you have joined the meeting by phone, you will not not be able to participate in the voting.
- If multiple members are attending the meeting from the same device, they will only be able to cast one vote for each motion.
- If members are holding proxies for other members, they will only be able to cast one vote for each motion.

President, Oakville Curling Club
Oakville Curling Club has partnered with the Oakville Festivals of Film & Art to help promote the documentary CURL POWER. It tells the story of five best friends who juggle their lives as teenagers with the goal of winning the Canadian Junior Curling Championship. Coached by their former Olympian moms, they navigate the pressures of intense training, competitions and social lives. This intimate and imaginative coming-of-age documentary tells a story of angst and ecstasy while pursuing a goal.
We’ll give moviegoers a taste of curling with Rocks & Rings in the cinema lobby. We’re also hosting a contest for a chance to win TRY CURLING sessions at our club. We hope you’ll join us!
