Drymen Curling Club

Last Season’s trophies were presented during the meal following the Christmas Bonspiel (Dec 2017).  This year saw the presentation of a brand new Clachan Cup by the proprietors of the Clachan Inn, Gordon and Elaine Strang.  Many thanks to them for their generosity. The first name on the new cup is Anne Ewing who’s team members were John Steel, Alan Brunger & Helen Watson.   The evening was held in the SpringKerse View in Stirling, the meal was very good and the staff very helpful.  Trophies were presented by Club President Lorna Young.

We had a great day out on Sunday 3rd December, many thanks to Jim Bilsland for being an excellent host at Greenacres Ice Rink. The winning team was Skipped by John Steel with team members Alan Brunger, Fraser Robb and Marie Elder.

Well done to all who played in our 2 teams in the Forth and Endrick Province medal 2017.  Drymen came second to Strathendrick.  We nearly did it!!

It’s not long until we kick off the new season with our Opening Bonspiel on 14th September 2017.  The website has been updated with the team lists and dates.  The Club Calendar has also been updated and is now ready for you to download.  It will be great to see everyone again so here’s to an entertaining and enjoyable few months ahead.

Lorna, Club President.

Due to the Ice rink being closed we have missed 3 dates in the Clachan Cup.  A minor change to the end of the current scheduled dates will ensure that the three teams play each other 4 times for the Cup, rather than the original 6.

The committee has agreed that this is the easiest outcome since it is unlikely we would be able to secure additional dates during April.  Please see the attached Adobe file with the changes.  Anne and Chris need to play each other on 7th and 24th March.

Clachan Cup revised schedule 2017

There have been a few changes to times and one date change (March 7th) for the Clachan Cup so please make sure your diaries are up to date.  Either download the electronic version or here is a document containing the team names and dates/times.

Although all the team information and dates are on this website, here is a printable version in an adobe file.  Pages 2-9 contain all the club teams and dates and pages 10-12 contain the external fixtures and teams  (there are a few gaps on page 11, sorry but Lorna is still trying to make sense of it all!).
