In order to be a competitive curler and maintain a full time course load, financial support must be carefully balanced. There are so many expenses that come with both of these things—the stress this scholarship lifts off my shoulders is incredibly helpful and appreciated.

When my father interrupted me in the middle of a workout and excitedly handed me the phone I knew it was good news! Receiving the For the Love of Curling Scholarship had me excited, surprised and a little nervous for the opportunity to be a youth curling ambassador on behalf of Curling Canada. I still have goose bumps.Donald-DeWolfe

The curling community is filled with great people and that’s what makes curling such a unique sport. Walking into any small-town curling club across Canada, you are greeted with a warmth and hospitality unlike any other. The essence of this scholarship is rooted in the core values of the curling community, hence the name “for the Love of Curling”.

Trying to push higher and higher in our sport becomes expensive as training is more frequent and equipment is replaced more often. This scholarship will allow me to focus more time on my game, and spend less time working to put myself through school. Thank you!Matthew-Hall
