Dumfries Young Curlers enjoy European Junior Tour success in Prague

dailyrecord.co.uk

Eight young curlers from Dumfries travelled to Prague at the weekend for the second leg of the European Junior Tour and the stand out performance came from Fay Henderson whose rink won the Junior Ladies Cup.

Team O Carson were the best placed local boys team and although this was skip Orrin Carson, Logan Carson, Archie Hyslop and Charlie Gibb’s first overseas tournament, it didn’t seem to affect their play, although there were some tired boys on the flight home.

Team Craik were the third team with local curlers Jack Carrick, Struan Carson and Scott Hyslop representing Dumfries. Team Craik took to the ice first, they were up against Team Mjoen from Norway, and on what turned out to be the trickiest sheet in the rink, the boys struggled to get to grips with the ice early on and found themselves 1-6 down after five ends.

After this the boys got into the game and could have forced an extra end if it hadn’t been for the Norwegian skip’s last stone, cutting the boys down to a two for the win.
