The Triangle Curling Club

Welcome to the Triangle Curling Club

We are in our 13th year of operation in the Raleigh, North Carolina metropolitan area.

So, you found yourself glued to curling on the tube. You're totally enchanted by the mind-bending strategy, the furious sweeping, and the precision shot-making. The fast-paced action made your head spin! (Okay, so we exaggerate a bit) And now you want to know more about this great Olympic sport, right?

Well, once again the Triangle Curling Club is welcoming new members. Why spend the winter months staring at the TV when you could be making new friends, getting a bit of exercise and having a great time?

Come on out! Find out more about it on our membership page, which contains information about our club, how to join, and whom to contact if you have any other questions.

2008 Winter League Started

Thursday, 2008 February 28 - 10:04 am

The Triangle Curling Club's 2008 Winter League Season has started. League play results are available here, or from the link on the left.

If you are not playing in the league (but have still signed up for club membership), you can sign up to play as a spare for league members who are absent. If you're on the spares list, you should get an email when a spare is needed; simply reply to the league member who made the request, or to the team skip, to claim the spot. You will need to pay $25 for the curling session. (If you are already a league member and are playing as a spare, you only need to pay $5 to play as a spare.)

If you have not signed up as a league member, you can still sign up to play as a spare. Visit the membership page for more information.

NBC to Air Curling Reality Show

Tuesday, 2008 February 12 - 8:53 am

NBC has plans to air a reality show based on curling, possibly picking up Bruce Springsteen or Jon Bon Jovi as a host. Contestants would compete to become members of one of two teams (five men and five women) that will train for six months before competing in the U.S. regional playdowns in 2009. If the teams win the playdowns, they will go on to the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.
