The Dave MacDougal/Paul Doucet team from Yarmouth NS won the open division of the Maritime Stick Curling Championship held recently at the Cornwall Curling club by narrowly defeating the Ron Crowe/Bill Spinney team from Truro. The women’s division championship game was an all Cornwall PEI event with the Etta Reid/Myrna Craswell team defeating the 5 time champion team of Ruth Stavert and Gloria Clarke.

The Maritime Stick Curling Championship, now in its 8th season, consists of 6 teams from each province (4 open teams and 2 women’s) making it an 18 team event. Stick curling is a relatively new game designed to accommodate persons with limited mobility, but it is open to anyone who wants to compete. Rocks must be delivered with a stick and sweeping is only allowed from the near hog line to the back of the house (circles). A game is 6 ends with each end consisting of 6 rocks for each team. A game takes about one hour to play. Each of the two players on a team only throws from his/her end of the ice and never goes to the opposite end of the rink. The player whose turn it is to throw the 6 rocks for an end alternates throws with the opposition player. The player who is not throwing calls the game (skips) for his/her team-mate.

The Dennis Watts rink from the Charlottetown Curling Complex had to play in two finals today, against the previously-unbeaten Barry Cameron foursome from the Silver Fox Curling & Yacht Club in Summerside, but they won both, to capture the PEI Travelers Curling Club Championship men’s title at the Cornwall Curling Club. The women’s championship was won by the Sharon Horne team from the Western Community Curling Club in Alberton, who went undefeated in the competition, beating Charlottetown’s Tammi Cudmore rink 4-2 in the afternoon final. The Watts and Horne rinks will now advance to the national Travelers Curling Club Championship, Nov. 20-26 at the Kelowna Curling Club, featuring 14 men’s and 14 women’s teams from Curling Canada’s Member Associations — the 10 provinces, three territories and Northern Ontario.
Other members of the winning Dennis Watts men’s rink are third Erik Brodersen, second Andrew MacDougall, and lead Doug MacGregor. Completing the Sharon Horne women’s rink are third stone Bobbi-Jean MacMillan, second Alison Griffin, and lead Iva Griffin.
The runner-up Cameron team includes Paul Matheson, Darrel Thibeau, and Corey Montgomery, with Susan Dowling- Shaw, Anne Chouinard, and Karen Hardy rounding out the Cudmore squad.
In Tuesday afternoon’s first men’s final, Cameron had a 4-1 lead after six ends of play in the eight end contest. Watts scored a deuce in the seventh, and then stole a triple in the final end for the come from behind win. The rules specify that a team who goes through round robin play undefeated and then loses in the final must be beaten twice, so a second “sudden death” final was played in the evening. This time, Watts took the lead early, stealing a single in the first end. Cameron responded with a single point in the second, with Watts blanking end three, taking a deuce in the fourth and stealing singles in the fifth and for a 5-1 lead. Cameron took a deuce in seven, but ran out of rocks in the eighth, losing 5-3.
In the Tuesday morning semi-finals, Watts beat Bob Matheson and his Maple Leaf rink 8-6, while Cudmore edged Crapaud’s Julie Mutch rink 4-3 to advance to the finals against Cameron and Horne. Seven men’s and six women’s rinks, who won their respective club championships, took part in the championship.

The men’s tiebreaker round, between the Montague, Crapaud, and Maple Leaf men’s teams, took place today at the PEI Travelers Curling Club Championship at the Cornwall Curling Club, in order to determine the final spot in Tuesday’s semi-finals. All three teams, plus the Charlottetown (Dennis Watts) rink finished round robin play with 3-3 win-loss records. Tiebreaking rules advanced Charlottetown into the semis, with the other three teams playing off.
Larry Richards photo
The first tiebreaker saw the Crapaud foursome, skipped by Alan Inman, beat the Paul Morrison-skipped Montague team by a 7-2 score. Crapaud then took on the Maple Leaf rink, skipped by Bob Matheson, with the O’Leary squad winning by a 6-5 score to win the berth in the 11 am Tuesday semi-final against Charlottetown (Watts). The women’s semi at the same time sees Crapaud (Julie Mutch) and Charlottetown (Tammi Cudmore) square off. Both finished round robin play with 3-2 win-loss records. The winners of the semis will advance to their respective 3 pm Tuesday final, where they will face undefeated Western (Sharon Horne) on the women’s side, and the Silver Fox (Barry Cameron) on the men’s.
The rules state that teams who were unbeaten in round robin play, but lose the final, must be beaten twice, so, in the event that Horne or Cameron lose the final, they will play in another (sudden death) final at 7 pm.
The eventual winners will advance to the national Travelers Curling Club Championship, Nov. 20-26 at the Kelowna Curling Club, featuring 14 men’s and 14 women’s teams from Curling Canada’s Member Associations — the 10 provinces, three territories and Northern Ontario.

As most of you know, we have an annual 9 hole, best ball, golf tourney every June at Countryview Golf Club. Bob Fowler, who has been organizing it for many years, is stepping down, and we are looking for help in organizing the event.
(file photo)
The good thing about organizing this is that the event has regular sponsors for most of the prizes, and the golf course management and staff know the event and many of our club members well, and are willing to provide advice, too. If you could like to help out, get in touch with a Board of Directors member, or Bev our manager.

The PEI Traveler’s Curling Club Championship, featuring teams who win their club championships, takes place here at the Cornwall Curling Club from March 11-15, 2016 (if no tiebreakers, it could wrap up on the 14th). First draw is Friday at 11. Opening ceremonies are 6:15 Friday evening. All seven PEI dedicated curling facilities are participating in the men’s event, with six clubs taking part in the women’s. The winning teams advance to the national Travelers Curling Club Championship, Nov. 20-26 at the Kelowna Curling Club, featuring 14 men’s and 14 women’s teams from Curling Canada’s Member Associations — the 10 provinces, three territories and Northern Ontario.
Last year’s provincial winners were the Lisa Jackson team from the Cornwall Curling Club, who went on to win PEI’s first Canadian Travelers Championship, and the Freddy Fraser rink from the Western Community Curling Club in Alberton. Under the eligibility requirements, these teams cannot participate this year.
The men’s and women’s divisions each play a round robin, with the top three teams advancing to the championship round, following any tiebreakers. The second and third place teams play in the semi-final, with the winner taking on the first place team in the final. If a team goes through round robin play undefeated but loses the first final, a second final will take place between that team and the winner of the first final.
