Tentative League Offerings for 2023-24. Confirmation is pending.

We offer a large variety of leagues that accommodate a wide range of curlers. So, whether you’re a recreational player or someone competitive; if you’re 8, 98 or somewhere in-between, the Orillia Curling Club is sure to have a league suitable for you.

Monday Afternoon 12:30pm - Mixed Tag

Monday Afternoon 3:15pm - CYO

Monday Night Doubles-6:30 pm

Tuesday 9:30am - Day Ladies

The Day Ladies is a very social league comprised of all levels of curlers from beginners to
experienced. No matter what your level of expertise we welcome you to join us. Those with
little or no experience will be mentored by their teammates. We want everyone to feel
comfortable both on and off the ice. Our league is fortunate to have Delaine Payton as a
member who will offer and demonstrate tips for improving your game.
We curl on Tuesday and/or Thursday mornings at 9:30 am. We do have specific teams for
the Fall Draw and different teams for the Winter Draw. These teams are made up from a
random draw from the hat after registration is received. All players are expected to be
present for each game. If, for some reason they are unable to be present, it is their
responsibility to find a spare from the List of Spares provide with contact numbers.
There are generally enough spares for each position to fill this need.
BONSPIELS
Our League has 2 organized bonspiels throughout the year. These are “Fun” events, and
although there are prizes, there is no pressure whatsoever. They are tag draws so you do not
know which team you will be on till you get there. The surprise of seeking out your team over
refreshments prior to the game is part of the fun.
Christmas Bonspiel
This is usually held the week before Christmas on a Tuesday. Usually there is a Theme and
often there are costumes involved, if you choose, just for the fun of it.
The day starts with registration and morning refreshments followed by an 8 end game.
Lunch is then served followed by a 6 end game.
Prizes are awarded at the end of the day, which usually ends by 4:00 pm.
Closing Bonspiel
This is usually held the last week of curling on a Tuesday.
Its format is the same as the Christmas Bonspiel.
Day of Champions
This is an event held by the Orillia Curling Club on the Saturday during the last week of
curling for the season. All of the leagues participate in this event with their best teams.
The Day Ladies participate in this day by entering two teams to participate in a demonstration
game for bragging rights.
