Top Ten Challenge
It’s that time of year again, the Top Ten Challenge at Forfar. This year’s event will be held on Sunday 27 March and is a full day of activity.
Depending on the number of teams entered there will be a mini round robin stage where each match will consist of a number of ends play in rink, triples, & pairs format to amass as many shots scored as possible. The final discipline of the day is the “hotshots” where many points can be added, or if last year is anything to go by, lost from your brought forward score.
The cost for the day will be £165 per team. I think food is included but I will check.
In the first instance I will be inviting those who participated last year to play but I'm sure more players will be required. I need 9 players to make it worth our while submitting an entry because penalty shots are applied for teams playing with less.
If you're interested let me know ASAP.

Peter Malcolm says "It has been a pleasure to perform the Match Secretary role for the past few years - thanks for all your support. I'm sure you will all help to make Andy's job as easy as possible.

Curling outdoors in Aberdeen !!
My girls and I enjoyed the experience of being able to curl outdoors on the Duthie Park boating pond, adjacent to Riverside Drive, in near perfect conditions last Wednesday afternoon.
.
Usually this pond is full of debris when it is frozen but if similar conditions arise I'll mark some circles and try and get some others along with their stones.

The runner up will be decided in due course after the two outstanding games are played which were postponed due to the heavy snow last month.

Winter League
The two games postponed due to the snow on Fri 17 December have been rescheduled.
T Atkinson v G Fisher (1 v 7) wil be played on Wed 19 January at 8.30pm
I Ingram v R Morrison (8 v 9) will be played on Sun 13 February at 12.15pm
Ideally I would have preferred both games to be played sooner but spare ice is in very short supply. If this date is unsuitable skips can try to make alternative arrangements between themselves.
