The Glooscap Junior Curling Program

The Glooscap Junior Curling Program offers a fun environment to learn the game of curling for everyone between the ages of 7 and 19.   Our program is offered on Monday and Wednesday afternoons from 3 :15-4 :15 (for Elementary aged students) and from 4 :15 to 5 :15 (for Middle and High School level students).  Our season will begin on November 2nd, 2020, and carry on through the end of March
2021.

The junior program has an extensive collection of curling shoes that can be loaned out for the season, so the only equipment required is a broom and warm clothes.  Registration is $115 for the season.

If you know of someone who may be interested in joining our program, please email the Coordinator, Nancy Belliveau, at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or

 Covid Update

Things are going well at GCC and we are lucky to be curling, let's not be the group that causes a shutdown.  Just to reinforce some of our current policies:

• Member spectators only
• The kitchen is closed - that means "do not enter the kitchen"
• The scoreboards are not to be used

Here is a new restriction from the Nova Scotia Curling Association:

Anyone residing or commuting to Metro Halifax who is a member of a club outside of Metro is not permitted to curl in that facility until December 9 or Public Health Guidelines permit. 

Thank you for your continuing cooperation.

The following is required:

• Bartender for Valley Masters every 2nd Thursday afternoon starting Nov 12

Return to Play

Please note that as of 1 October 2020, the Province of Nova Scotia and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Strang, has announced that in a sports setting, groups of 50 do not need to physical distance.  Curling can now operate normally while on the ice and the game can be played as usual -- no distancing required; two sweepers permitted; and sweeping behind tee line permitted.  All other protocols in this document must be followed until further announcements are made.  Quick summary:

• log in when you arrive
• masks on at all times except on the ice and at your table after the game
• sanitize rock handles before and after game
• scoreboard not to be used
• no spectators (this includes members who are not playing)
• sanitize your table and chairs before you leave
• kitchen closed

The bar will be open on league curling nights.
