Competitive Leagues

ANNOUNCEMENT

The Nova Scotia Stick Curling Competitive League (NSSCCL) has ceased operation.

Competitive stick curlers can find high level competition as part of the stick curling tour.

See attached link for Stick Curling Calendar

The NSSCCL started as an idea hatched in the Air Canada Edmonton lounge after the Nova Scotia teams had our asses handed to us at the national championship back in 2018. The first year was a perfect example of don’t let perfect stop you from starting. We adapted and refined to work our way to an efficient and effective format that allowed the top Nova Scotia teams to compete against each other on a regular basis and prepare better for the provincial, Maritime and national championships. In 2026 Nova Scotia teams won nine of the eighteen available medals at the national championship so I guess some progress was made J

Sometimes you are the victim of your own success and now there are enough club-based stick bonspiels that we are transitioning to a more flexible tour format.

I want to thank those who made the competitive league a success. The guidance of Milt Larsen and Chuck Dyck was invaluable. We all know that the hard work was done by Doreen and her efforts made everything run so much more efficiently.

Obviously, I also want to thank our sponsor, Baker Tilly, whose constant support allowed us to do the things we needed to do, how we wanted to do them, in the places we wanted to do them. They have been amazing to us over the years!!!

See you all on the tour!
