This past weekend was the Worcester Cup Bonspiel, a curling tournament at The Country Club in Brookline, MA. The South Shore Curling Club sent three teams (I was on South Shore II) and all three made it to the finals on Sunday, with our team playing for the Worcester Cup! We were pretty proud that our two-year-old club did so well against more established curling clubs. Though we lost the game to a much more experienced team from Broomstones, just making it that far was enough for us. And congratulations again to South Shore III for winning the Wachusett!
Here are some photos my wife and I took at the event:
Something that was new to me was the curlers parade, where a bagpiper plays the teams onto the ice. It was kinda cool to participate in this:
