Track Stone Delivery with Klutch!

GCC stones now have the latest technology built-in to them: Klutch Curling! Located between the handle and the stone, are sensors that provide curlers loads of delivery details including short and long times, amount of drift, and whether the release was pushed or pulled.

Klutch is the same system that was used during last season’s Grand Slam of Curling. The GCC invested in this technology as an additional resource for all GCC members to further improve their delivery.

Knock the Dust Off Spiel

August 22, 2019 - 8:47am -- Ethan Bradford

The Knock the Dust Off spiel was designed as a direct result of our 2019 curling research project. Here is what we heard:
• Finding bonspiel team members is challenging for new and experienced curlers, so we're doing individual sign-up.
• You'd like to know when you'll curl, so most of the weekend will be pool play, i.e. you'll know ahead of time the time of all your Friday and Saturday games.
• Bonspiels are expensive, so we're offering this spiel for only $50 a person (with advance payment) which is $20 less than traditional 3-day spiels.
