We just completed our 3rd rookie spiel with a lot of fun and very good competition. 13 players took part. All four games were within 1 or 2 points and players had the chance to try different roles. The skipping was amazing. Lots of great shots made and some even on purpose. lol

Great double takeout in the last end for a score of 3 to win by 1 by skip Sanford .

Great breakfast prepared by Audrey and Debbie.

So much fun with these rookies.
