Leagues
- If you play on a fixed team, you’re expected to find a spare if you’ll miss a game. If there’s a bye team contact your equivalent on that team first, then check the Find a Spare list at MEMBERS HOME > League Information.
- Our Wednesday Evening League is still looking for a few players to round out our two full draws, promising a high-energy, social night of curling in a packed house!
- There are still spaces available in our social leagues on Tuesday and Friday evenings and Sunday afternoons. These leagues are a great chance to try out new shots, meet fellow curlers, and play with different teammates each week. Whether you're new to the sport or a seasoned player, there's a spot for you! Sign-up is on MEMBERS HOME > League Information > League Sign-up for members.
Events
You can register for club bonspiels and other events on the ACC website under EVENTS > Events Registration.
- Registration for the Turkeyspiel opens October 18. This spiel includes fun curling, the famous turkey shoot, and a great turkey dinner. Dress in your holiday colours or your best elf suit and kick off the holiday season!
Members Home
The ACC Members Home site is where you can update your personal information, register to curl, find your league and team information, and find other members.
- If you’d like to occasionally get in some extra curling and try out different fixed leagues, sparing is a great option! Sign up at MEMBERS HOME > Member Information > My Sparing Availability.
Did you know?
There are simple things you can do to help the game move smoothly so that getting 8 ends in is easy. You can see our updated rules and etiquette on the website under Curling > Etiquette, Roles and Rules.
- Sand, grit and dirt are the ice’s worst enemy, so do your part to keep the ice clean. Change your shoes before you go on the ice and use the sticky pads.
- Don’t leave a hand or knee touching the ice after delivering your rock. Stand up quickly or squat with only feet on the ice. Heat from body parts melts the ice.
Club
- As you might know, over the past years the club has used the Almonte Cup bonspiel as a community fundraiser, with the Almonte General Hospital Fairview Manor Foundation as recipient. We’ve raised over $30000 for the Foundation. Please take a minute to answer a one-question survey at https://forms.office.com/r/VnrMNmRy1d about the future of the Almonte Cup fundraising.
50/50 Draw
The rollover is back! The 50/50 draw will continue to run virtually and members who want to participate contribute upfront (20 weeks x $2) for the full season starting October 30.
The rollover - this year, we’re including all adult members’ names into the draw. If the selected member has not paid to participate, the prize is not paid out and will instead roll over, adding to the next week’s jackpot. This will continue each week until a paid member's name is drawn – meaning bigger prizes to be won!
If you want to participate, simply e-transfer $40 to etransfer@almontecurling.ca. Please indicate 50\50 and Your Name in the comment section of your transfer.
