N.B. curler qualifies for provincials well ahead of schedule
The team is made up of women from four different Saskatchewan cities, but their skip – Robyn Silvernagle – proudly calls North Battleford her home.
Team Silvernagle, which is made up of Robyn Silvernagle, Dayna Demers from Meadow Lake, Christina Goertzen from Saskatoon, and Kara Thevenot from Prince Albert, is one of four teams to official pre-qualify for the Viterra Scotties Women’s Provincials, to be held Jan. 24-29, 2017 in Melville, Sask.
They were able to do so based on their place in the Canadian Team Ranking System (CTRS), which, as of Nov. 28, was third.
“Knowing that we already have a spot is awesome,” Silvernagle said. “It’s something that we strive for – it’s kind of our focus the whole year and what we’re working up towards. We’re really excited to be playing in it.”
