Elite-level athletes can provide insight and instruction that will help your members become more confident curlers. Thanks to a generous donation from Bill Peskoff and the Peskoff Charitable Fund, clubs can book full-day visits from players in our Athlete Outreach program—without any upfront costs.

On-ice training for curlers of all levels, community outreach events, strategy discussions, Q&A sessions—all can be a part of the programming during athlete visit to your club.
