The future of curling is bright in Saskatchewan
You couldn’t help but notice the huge smile on Ashley Howard’s face as she officially brought the female curling ceremonies to an end Saturday afternoon at the Saskatchewan Winter Games.
Not because she was glad the event was over, but with the calibre of play the spectators at the Northlands Power Centre were treated to all week long in at the North Battleford facility.
“It was a terrific week of curling for both the men’s and female sides,” Howard said, the executive director of CURLSASK. “What we saw here this week just shows everyone that the future of curling in Saskatchewan is pretty bright.”
Saturday’s gold medal final pitted Team Saskatoon against Team South West. Both teams finished with two wins in their three round robin games and won their respective semifinals to make it to the title draw.
