K-6 9am – 10:30am
This time slot will be broken down into our Little Rocks group and our Junior Red group. We aim to teach our younger curlers basic skills by utilizing games with the emphasis on having FUN! Coaches start with an energizing warm-up and then head to the ice for skills and games that will implement the fundamentals of curling.
Little Rocks
- Learn balance and skills using FUN GAMES!
- Parents are required to stay for practice.
- Curlers can take “mini breaks” if they need to.
- Come 10 minutes early to get geared up and ready to start promptly at 9:00am.
- No equipment needed but bring a **clean** pair of shoes (a separate pair of “curling sneakers” is a good idea if you have them).
- Dress in stretchy moveable, layers of clothing. Gloves are mittens may be needed.
Junior Red
- This level is for beginning and intermediate curlers to develop their delivery, sweeping, how to play the game, and start to learn strategy.
- Fun drills and game play!

- New curler parents are required to stay for the first two sessions.
- No equipment needed. SPCC provides sliders and brooms. If you do have your own equipment, please bring it.

- If your curler does not have curling shoes, bring **clean** shoes to use on the ice (a separate pair of “curling sneakers” is a good idea if you have them).
- Come 10 minutes early to get geared up and ready to start promptly at 9:00am.
There are two comfortable viewing areas. Some parents choose to stay for all practice times as it is fun to watch the kids play and improve.
Most weeks after practice time, Little Rock and Junior Red curlers will head upstairs for social time (structured) and snacks (provided by the SPPC Junior Program). Curling, by tradition, is a very social sport. Attending the social time is not required but is a fun way to get to know your fellow curlers. The more friends you have, the more you want to continue.
7-College 10:45am – 1pm

Parents/Guardians
During practice times for all levels, there will be coffee upstairs for parents. On most Saturdays, there will be parent led roundtable discussions. Parents are their kids’ best advocates. Team formation and other vital information is shared during this time that will aid in advancing your curler. Don’t know about competitive curling? Stay and learn more. Parent liaisons will be on hand most Saturdays to answer any questions. If we don’t know…we will find out for you!
For Red and White levels this year, our parent liaisons will be aiding in the process of finding kids teammates and walking parents through the process of registering for and competing/preparing for junior bonspiels. We will also keep you abreast of any upcoming junior bonspiels at other clubs.
We have many other opportunities planned for the year and will keep you up to date and informed as they arise.
