CURLERS OFF ICE TEAM BUILDING!

No ice? No problem!

We will try bowling, thanks to Mark (Rhys’ dad 💪).
The boys got together in the glorious sunshine today to catch up, have a laugh, and play a bit of bowling at the fantastic Marchmount Bowling club.

They also voted on their strip design for next season 🙌.

Plans are now in place for more catch ups over summer where the parents are convinced team tactics will be discussed 😜🤣.

A great day…. And may the parents add, it’s quite a difficult sport, or at least we all made it lol (except for mark obviously!).

TEAM COUPAR HAVE ARRIVED!!!

So we are Jack, James, Rhys and Callum, 4 local Dumfries boys who love curling. Its that simple.

We've played together for a few years now and whilst the ice is currently being melted, we have formally come together to create a competitive team ahead of next season (which starts in August).

Today was a big one, we entered the U17 Ashams national programme (competition structure that will see us travelling around the country). We will update you when confirmation lands, but for now, follow us, share our posts, and join us for the journey as we stick together for a very busy year as Team Coupar.

National events, local Bonspiels, indivudal events, in house leagues, and training, we'll post about all our activity.

We plan to train hard, play competitively and HAVE FUN.

Stay tuned too, as we have some UNBELIEVEABLE sponsors we want to celebrate too!!
