Month: October 2017

The 2017 World Mixed Curling Championship came to a close at Champery in Switzerland on Saturday.  After a tough week of Competition Scotland’s team of Grant Hardie, our own Rhiann Macleod, Billy Morton, and Barbara McFarlane beat Canada by 8-5 after an extra end to take gold.  WELL DONE RHIANN – another gong to add to her already impressive collection.

About 15 members of Petroleum helped Rhiann to celebrate at a supper in the Dutch Mill on 24th October.  After being presented with a commemorative miniature stone Rhiann shared out an enormous cake and a good time was had by all.

 

Welcome to the 2017-18 season.  We are now back on the ice and getting back into the way of playing.

Our first competition has already taken place.  The first Curl Aberdeen club bonspiel was held on Saturday 7th October.  12 clubs entered and results were determined after the clubs played three games each.  Petroleum’s team was skipped by Ian Grigor and included Bill Morrison, Chris Inglis, Craig McNaughton, and Sarah Glidden.  The picture shows Ian’s team clebrating after beating Turriff in the final and winning the competition.  Well done all.
