It’s a “three-peat” for the Jamie Newson rink from the Silver Fox Curling Club in Summerside, capturing their third consecutive PEI Mixed Curling Championship, edging Crapaud’s Nick Blanchard team 7-6 this afternoon at the Maple Leaf Curling Club in O’Leary.
L-R: PEI Mixed winners Jamie Newson, Melissa Morrow, Andrew MacDougall, Miranda Ellis
Blanchard won the first of three triple-knockout section qualifiers in the event, while Newson captured the next two, and the first of two possible championship games. Had Blanchard won the game, there would have been a sudden death game Monday evening, but a win in the first match gave Newson the title.
(L-R): PEI Mixed Finalists Nick Blanchard, Stephanie Schnare, Jamie Stride, Terri Wood, with Bill Smith, Curl PEI Treasurer
Blanchard led the game 4-3 at the fourth end break, but a pair of Newson deuces gave him a 7-4 lead. Blanchard was kept to singles in ends seven and eight, giving Newson the 7-6 win, and a return trip to the Canadian Mixed Championship, to be held Nov. 7-15 at the Canmore Golf and Curling Club in Alberta.
Nine teams representing five curling clubs took part in the PEI Mixed Championship.
The City of Summerside is set to host the 2020 Vogue Optical 55+ Winter Games. The event will take place the week of February 24th to the 29th. Events nclude hockey, curling, stick curling, darts, cribbage, bowling, walking, skating, swimming, and many more!

Round robin play wrapped up this evening in the Sam’s Restaurant Sunday evening Mixed Doubles league. Congratulations to winners Carrie Jones and Garth Cudmore!
It was a super Sunday for two-time defending PEI Mixed champion Jamie Newson and his Silver Fox team, winning both the B and C qualifying games, over “A” qualifier Nick Blanchard of Crapaud, for the Monday championship round at the PEI Mixed Curling Championship in O’Leary. By winning two sections, Newson will have “double life” on Monday, winning the championship if he takes either the 2 pm or the 6 pm Championship Round games, while Blanchard would have to win both games to be declared champion.
In Sunday morning play, deuces were wild for Newson in the “B” qualifier, where he scored four of them (including a steal) and kept Blanchard to singles for an 8-3 win.
In the 2 pm “C” semi-finals of the modified triple-knockout draw, Blanchard eliminated Charlottetown’s Alex MacFadyen squad by a 6-4 score, while Newson got off to a fast start in his game against Philip MacDonald foursome, following a first-end triple with a stolen second end single to lead 4-0 after 2 ends. MacDonald was kept to a single point in three and a pair of Newson deuces in ends four and five put him into an 8-1 lead. It was handshakes after MacDonald took 1 in the sixth, with a final score of 8-2 for Newson.
The 6 pm “C” qualifier game saw Newson blank the first two ends, and score a deuce in the third. Blanchard blanked the fourth and Newson stole a single in the fifth end. Blanchard was kept to a single in the sixth and a Newson deuce in the seventh put the game out of reach with a 5-1 final score.
The PEI Mixed championship team will advance to the 2021 Canadian Mixed Championship, Nov. 7-15, 2020, at the Canmore Golf and Curling Club in Alberta.

Uttara Despande and Sandra Walker posing as 2019 Canadian Women’s Stick Curling Champions in Cornwall, P.E.I.
HALIFAX — Everyone has a story and Uttara Deshpande’s is truly a remarkable one.
Spoiler alert: it comes with a uniquely Canadian twist.
“I’m proud of myself and my family,” said Deshpande. “They’re the ones pushing me.”
Her modesty aside, Deshpande has always pushed herself; in life, in her travels and on the ice.
Deshpande’s Canadian story begins in 1983. Born in India, she immigrated with her husband to Canada, where they raised their two sons in Nova Scotia. She says as a family, they quickly adapted to life in their new country. They made friends, enjoyed the culture, her husband carved out a successful career and as a family they quickly adopted an appreciation for local sports. One sport that caught Deshpande`s attention was curling.
“It looked easy when I saw it on the TV,” said Deshpande. “But ice made me nervous.”
She decided to try it, without much initial success.
“As soon as I saw the ice, I was just frozen. Literally my coaches were holding me up to get up,” said Deshpande. “I knew this is not going to work for me.”
Pushing those doubts aside, she persevered. Deshpande signed up for curling lessons and she joined her husband for early morning practices — always striving to improve. In time, her peers began to take notice. Deshpande was getting better. Her hard work was starting to pay off.
“She never gives up,” said Sandra Walker, who curls with Deshpande at the Glooscap Curling Club in Kentville, N.S. “She practices and practices and practices and always wants to improve.”
Sport stories often come equipped with turning points. Deshpande’s pivotal moment in curling was being introduced to Stick Curling, which allows curlers to use a stick to send the rock down the ice, instead of the traditional method of delivering curling rocks while sliding low to the ice. The switch to the stick was a game-changer for Deshpande.
In January 2017 I started curling with my spouse and six other friends. Having not curled before we signed up for an 8 week learn to curl program facilitated by Curl PEI along with 44 other participants. The program was hosted on alternate weeks by Cornwall Curling Club and the Charlottetown Curling Club. There we learned the basics techniques of throwing and sweeping rocks, the game rules and curling culture. It was well run with lots of knowledgeable and enthusiastic volunteers.
We enjoyed the game, people and culture so much we joined an end of year bonspiel at the Cornwall Curling Club called the Red / Blue. Our first full games and experience with the club members! The Cornwall Curling Club members, executive and staff made us feel welcome, had encouraging words for us newbies and were just a lot of fun.
So, in October 2017 I promptly registered for Monday and Thursday Mixed Recreational leagues. Sometimes on Thursdays I played a second game as a spare for the next draw and we were practicing on Sundays. After Christmas I joined a team for the Wednesday Semi-Competitive league when a spot opened. Curling three nights a week was great fun and exercise. For the 2017 / 2018 season we played in the KenMac Spiel, Mixed Doubles, year end RED / BLUE and I joined the Club”s executive board.
Before the 2018 / 2019 season I injured myself. I had to back off on my curling schedule and intensity. I played Monday and Wednesdays when I felt up to it. We played in the KenMac Spiel, Club Championship, Curl for Cancer Spiel, Year End RED / BLUE and Melt the Ice. For the Club I Chaired the Fundraising and Sponsorship committee and volunteered for the club spiels and events such as ParaSport Curling and the U-13 Fun Spiel. What I learned more than anything this season was that curling is great for all abilities, young or old, recreational or competitive there is a place for everyone.
After spinal fusion surgery in the summer of 2019 my curling future was in doubt. I was fortunate, it healed well. I worked on the ice making crew in October and I joined the Monday Mixed League. Since I physically couldn’t get down in the hack or slide I started curling with a stick and limited my sweeping effort because I wasn’t to stoop or bend. After the first week I felt good so I joined the Wednesday Semi-Competitive league and started regularly sparing on Thursday Mixed League. After a couple of weeks, I moved my delivery from the stick to a stabilizer. Six more weeks and I found I was delivering with a broom again and my sweeping was progressing. After Christmas this year I was able to rejoin the Thursday Mixed League as well.
Curling has been a journey the last three years. I’m continuing my club Executive Board work and volunteering. I have met many new people and I am proud to call them friends. Curling has also given me an opportunity to give back to my community.
The Nick Blanchard rink from the Crapaud Community Curling Club has won the first of three qualifiers for the championship round, and will take on the two-time defending champion Jamie Newson team from the Silver Fox club in Summerside at 10 am Sunday in the second qualifier at the PEI Mixed Curling Championship in O’Leary.
Blanchard beat the Alex MacFadyen squad from Charlottetown 7-5 in the “A” Qualifier on Saturday afternoon, and then downed the Philip MacDonald rink from Montague 8-1 in his “B” semi-final match, while Newson edged MacFadyen by a 6-5 score to advance to the “B” qualifier game.
The “C” semi-finals go at 2 pm Sunday, with the “C” Qualifier game at 6 pm. If Blanchard wins all three qualifiers, there will be no championship round. Otherwise, it will take place at 2 pm Monday and, if necessary at 6 pm.
The winning team will advance to the 2021 Canadian Mixed Championship, Nov. 7-15, 2020, at the Canmore Golf and Curling Club in Alberta.
Nine teams representing five curling clubs are taking part in the PEI Mixed Championship.
Two Maritimers are part of the top junior women’s curling team in the world.

They beat South Korea 7-5 in the gold-medal game at the world junior women’s curling championship on Saturday in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. South Korea was undefeated entering the final game.
It’s the third world junior title for the 21-year-old Burgess, who was playing third stone, and the second for Lenentine, the lead.
In a text message from Russia, Lenentine, a student at the University of Manitoba, said “the entire event was amazing.”
“The arena was like nothing I have ever competed in before, it was absolutely breathtaking. Without a doubt, the best event I have ever attended.”
Without a doubt, the best event I have ever attended.— Lauren Lenentine
Lenentine’s parents, Robbie and Jennifer Lenentine, were in Krasnoyarsk for the final and celebrated with the team afterward. Though the celebration was quick, she said.
“When the game was over, the closing ceremonies [were] immediately after so we got our medals then, which was amazing. Then, the closing banquet was immediately after that, so we haven’t had much time to let it sink in.”
The season wrapped up today for the Pepsi Under 16 Development League here at the Cornwall Curling Club, with 8 teams from a number of PEI curling clubs taking part. Thanks to the teams for participating, and good luck in the upcoming U16, and U13 Provincials! Thanks to Pepsi for donating equipment bags for the winning team!

Thanks to our former manager, Bev, for stepping in during this trying time for Lori and her family.

Congrats to Team McInnis, with Kim Dolan, Kathy O’Rourke, Susan McInnis, and Julie Scales, who have won the regular season points competition in the Upstreet Craft Brewing Tuesday evening competitive league, with the Mark MacDonald team coming second, followed by the Bill Hope, Steve vanOuwerkerk and Angus Kennedy foursomes. Here are the point scores:
The Phil Gorveatt team from the Charlottetown Curling Club went undefeated, winning all three qualifiers to capture the PEI Senior Men’s Curling Championship Monday here at the Cornwall Curling Club, without having to play a championship round. The Mark MacDonald foursome from the host club were in the A and B qualifier games, and are considered to be the “finalist” team.
The Kim Dolan rink from the Cornwall Curling Club won the Women’s title, winning all games except the “C” final, which Cornwall’s Shirley Berry squad took by a 9-3 score to force a deciding game.
Team Zacharias with Cornwall member Lauren Lenentine were 2-1 after two days of play at the World Juniors . Early this morning they played Russia at 2 pm local time! You can watch here (saved for later viewing) youtu.be/a3PmhRvK7GI

A win in either the “C” Qualifier or one of the two championship round games Monday at 2 pm or Tuesday at 10 am would give Dolan and/or Gorveatt their respective titles, while Berry and Likely would have to win all three of their games to be declared champion.

Round Two wrapped up last night in the Wednesday evening Ladder League. The “A” Pool, sponsored by D.P. Murphy Inc./Wendy’s was won by the Mark MacDonald rink, who finished with six wins and only one loss.
Round Two “A” Pool winners (L-R): Nelson Dougay, Angus Kennedy (sparing for Geoff Boyle), Mark MacDonald, Roger Richard
The Paul Neima team was next, with five wins, while Rob Gallant and Greg Groves both finished with four victories. These teams will all remain in the “A” Pool, while the Kim Nicholson, Kelly Watts, and Clara Jack rinks will go down to the “B” for the final round.
The results were extremely close in the “B” Pool, sponsored by Belvedere Golf Course, with FOUR rinks, skipped by Josh McInnis, Landen Warder, David Younker, and Greg Robertson all finishing with four wins and three losses, and only three of these teams moving up to the “A” pool. The head-to-head tiebreaking rules dictate that we look at the record of the teams against each other:
So, the team of Greg Robertson, Laura Arsenault, Kim Pippy, and Jeff Arsenault team is the head-to-head results winner of the prize from Belvedere Golf Course, having beaten all three of the other tied teams. Warder is second, having beaten the remaining two, and Younker is third, having beaten McInnis. McInnis lost to all three and will be remaining in the B Pool, while Robertson, Warder, and Younker move up to the “A” pool for the final round.
Here are the pools for Round Three, with the “A” Pool sponsored by Clow’s Red and White, and the “B” Pool sponsored by New Glasgow Lobster Suppers.

The 2020 PEI Seniors Curling Championships, with male and female divisions for curlers age 50 and over, are set for the Cornwall Curling Club, from February 14-18, with four women’s and eight men’s teams signed up, including the defending champions, the Kim Aylward women’s rink from the Silver Fox Curling Club in Summerside and the Phil Gorveatt men’s squad from Charlottetown. Six of the 12 teams are from the host club, with three teams from the Silver Fox, two from Charlottetown, and one from Crapaud.
Both the men’s and the women’s teams will play modified triple knockout draws, with the winner of each section dropping down to compete in the next section. If a team wins all three sections, they will be champion without a playoff; otherwise, the section winners advance to a two-game championship round on Monday.
Come on out to the Club to watch some great championship curling action, and cheer on our SIX Cornwall teams!

Modified Triple Knockout Draw Playoff Scenarios
Explanation for MA/WA and MB/WB:
1. One team wins all three qualifiers: Championship Round is not required.
2. One team wins two qualifiers. They play in both MA or WA and MB or WB (and win the event if they win either game). The other section winner plays in MA or WA and has to win to advance to MB or WB.
3. Three separate winners: the team that played in the most qualifying games advances to MB or WB, and the other winners play off in MA or WA. If there is a tie in the number of qualifying games played, then the team that qualified earliest goes to MB or WB and the other two teams play off in MA or WA.
*Qualifying games have yellow game number background on the schedule

The women’s championship came down to two teams from the Cornwall Curling Club. Gloria Clarke and Ruth Stavert unseated the two-time defending-champions, Elaine Hughes and Etta Reid, 4-2.
Junior Achievement of Prince Edward Island has announced the three business leaders who will formally be inducted into the P.E.I. Business Hall of Fame on May 20. They are, from left, Liam Dolan, Peter MacDonald and Dan MacIsaac, who gathered at the Delta Prince Edward in Charlottetown Feb. 10 for the announcement. JIM DAY/THE GUARDIAN – Saltwire
All three have a keen interest in the sport of curling, with Dolan, whose wife Kim is a 10-time PEI women’s champion, sponsoring many leagues and bonspiels over the years. MacDonald is a 5-time PEI representative at the Brier, and a longtime curling sponsor. MacIsaac is also a sponsor of curling events, including a decades-long sponsorship of the Kenmac Energy bonspiel here at the Cornwall Curling Club.
The Jenny and Edward White couple from the host Silver Fox Curling Club has won the 17-team PEI Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, defeating clubmates Jamie Newson and Miranda Ellis Monday afternoon by an 8-3 score in seven ends in a winner-take-all final game.

Team White won both the A and B sections of the Modified Triple Knockout draw, but did not advance to the Monday morning C final, which was won by Newson/Ellis, who then would have had to beat the White duo twice in the Championship round.
File photo: Finalist team Ellis (left) and Newson at last year’s championship
In the first Ch’ship round game, Newson/Ellis fought back from a 5-1 deficit after four ends, to tie the game 9-all after 8 ends of play and force an extra end, where they stole a single to win 10-9 and bring the championship to a 4 pm sudden-death match. That game was tied 3-3 after five ends, but a four-point sixth end plus a 7th end steal by Team White put the game out of reach for Newson/Ellis, who shook hands after the seventh end, trailing 8-3.
We are sad to learn that Club and Former Board member Darlene Howlett’s father, Francis Howlett, has passed away. Here are the funeral arrangements from Dingwell’s Funeral Home:

I would also like to thank ADL for the donation of milk, Cornwall Independent Grocer for contributing the ice cream, and a thank-you to Colin Younker at Little Caeser’s for the delicious pizzas that he provided for lunch!
It was a great day overall, and parents and coaches from other clubs reported that it was well organized and the curlers were very happy, too!
I want to send a special thank-you to all the volunteers who helped make the day run smoothly both on and off the ice, and the organizers, who did lots of work getting things ready!
Thank you!

The Jenny and Edward White couple from the host Silver Fox Curling Club has captured both the A and B sections of the 17-team modified triple knockout PEI Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, advancing them to both Monday championship round games at 12:45 and 4 pm, and giving them the championship if they win either game. They could have wrapped it up with a win in the “C” final at 9:30 am Monday, but they lost their Sunday semi-final match 12-8 to their clubmates Jamie Newson and Miranda Ellis, and won’t advance to that game.

In the morning “C” final, Newson/Ellis take on Charlottetown’s Robbie Doherty and Amanda Power, who beat Cornwall’s Calvin Smith and Katelyn Burgoyne twosome by a 7-5 score in their “C” semi-final matchup. The “C” winner faces Team White in the championship round, where they would have to win both games to take the title.
Earlier on Sunday, the Whites scored a triple in the seventh end and stole an 8th end single in an 8-7 come-from-behind win over Doherty Power in the “B” final, while Newson/Ellis tripled Cornwall juniors Chase MacMillan and Amanda MacLean 9-3 in six ends, and Smith/Burgoyne doubled Cornwall clubmates Liam Kelly and Kristie Rogers 6-3.
