“As an active participant and volunteer in youth curling, receiving this scholarship means that I can continue promoting our sport on a higher level. Volunteering and curling go hand-in-hand. It is important to me to give-back to the curling community that has supported me so much.”Bella-Croisier

“Being a role model for younger curlers is a huge honour. I intend to continue mentoring younger curlers in my community. Bringing curling to the attention of younger children is a very great way to grow the game and I hope to encourage many kids to fall in love with the game like I did.”Chantele-Broderson

“I love curling because it is a tough sport. You need to be in good shape mentally and physically. You also need to be good technically and have a lot of strategies. It is a sport where we are always learning. Finally, because the curling community is amazing. We are opponents on the ice but when the game is over, we are one big family!”

“Curling is a sport I’m passionate about, sure but it’s also a safe space, an inclusive space, where all of life’s issues are set aside for a few hours, with friends that last a lifetime. I feel at home on that pebbled ice, sometimes when I really needed it, and that’s why I love curling.”
