The Estevan Curling Club (ECC) board of directors has decided to end the 2020-21 curling season for all leagues, but the U18 curling program will continue.
The ECC board believes the latest extension for the Saskatchewan Health Authority restrictions has made the viability of restarting league play unrealistic. The current restrictions preventing games and leagues for team sports will end Feb. 19.
All team skips will be contacted by mid-February as to the refund policy. The curling club asks for patience during this process.
“We appreciate you – our members, sponsors and the community – for supporting curling. Thank you for your understanding during … this very trying season,” the curling club said on its Facebook page.
The Co-op Kids curling program, which is for children in kindergarten to Grade 5, came to an end on Sunday. But the curling club’s programs for youths in Grades 6 and up will continue until at least mid-February.
An estimated 25 to 30 kids are still involved with the program, and there will be kids on the ice two or three days each week.
