Les joueurs sur la piste dans un match ordinaire des Venerables au Club de curling et de tennis Tam Heather \u00e0 Scarborough, Ont. (Photo par Andrew Lamb)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nEt personne ne tient plus au c\u0153ur ce slogan \u00able curling c\u2019est pour la vie\u00bb qu\u2019un club bien enracin\u00e9 \u00e0 Toronto, appel\u00e9 The Tam Heather Venerables. Oui, \u00abv\u00e9n\u00e9rable\u00bb, \u00e0 savoir quelqu\u2019un qui est digne de respect, tant en raison de son \u00e2ge que de ses accomplissements.<\/p>\n
The Venerables a \u00e9t\u00e9 choisi comme nom en 1978 par le groupe original d\u2019environ 30 enseignants \u00e0 la retraite qui ont commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 louer du temps de glace au Club de curling et de tennis Tam Heather \u00e0 Scarborough, Ont. Ce club de curling masculin senior, le plus grand de son genre au Canada, abrite pr\u00e9sentement environ 250 joueurs \u00e2g\u00e9s de 55 ans et plus.<\/p>\n
Andrew Lamb est un de ces joueurs, et il explique une vision du curling en club qui est \u00e0 la fois flexible et accommodante.<\/p>\n
\u00abLes membres sont r\u00e9partis en quatre divisions, chacune avec environ 65 joueurs, qui pratiquent leur sport \u00e0 une vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de cr\u00e9neaux tout au long de la semaine,\u00bb indique Lamb. \u00abLes membres peuvent s\u00e9lectionner la division voulue en fonction des autres activit\u00e9s et \u00e9v\u00e9nements dans leur emploi du temps.\u00bb<\/p>\n
La plupart des participants habitent \u00e0 Scarborough, Pickering ou North York, mais il y a quelques-uns qui font un plus long trajet. Pour les matchs ordinaires, les \u00e9quipes s\u2019organisent sur le coup par les capitaines, mais il y a aussi une ligue comp\u00e9titive le vendredi et m\u00eame une ligue inter-club pour les participants qui aiment se mettre au d\u00e9fi. Les tournois internes offrent \u00e0 tous les membres de tous les niveaux la chance de go\u00fbter \u00e0 l\u2019exp\u00e9rience comp\u00e9titive.<\/p>\n
Le club monte aussi des ateliers gratuits pour les nouveaux joueurs, et Lamb explique que les troubles de dos ou de genou ne posent aucunement probl\u00e8me, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 la tige de lancement.<\/p>\n
\u00abJ\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 pratiquer le curling quand j\u2019avais 60 ans, apr\u00e8s m\u2019\u00eatre \u00e9pris de la strat\u00e9gie que je voyais aux matchs \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9,\u00bb dit-il. \u00abJ\u2019ai eu une bonne dose de r\u00e9alit\u00e9 au cours des trois premi\u00e8res ann\u00e9es, alors que j\u2019essayais de ma\u00eetriser l\u2019exactitude et la finesse pour quitter l\u2019appui-pied.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Dix ans plus tard, il s\u2019y adonne tout autant.<\/p>\n
\u00abLe curling est une bonne forme d\u2019exercice, quelque chose que je peux faire en compagnie d\u2019un entourage vraiment sympa, des gens de diff\u00e9rents \u00e2ges, avec des histoires diff\u00e9rentes et de beaux souvenirs,\u00bb dit-il. \u00abEt \u00e7a compl\u00e8te d\u2019ailleurs parfaitement la saison de golf.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Comme tous les clubs de curling, The Tam Heather Venerables profite des occasions sociales apr\u00e8s les matchs et ailleurs encore. Par exemple, des parties d\u2019euchre pour les membres et leurs conjoint(e)s, une f\u00eate de No\u00ebl, et une journ\u00e9e annuelle de golf.<\/p>\n
\u00abCes activit\u00e9s sociales, comme le curling, repr\u00e9sentent une excellente opportunit\u00e9 pour rencontrer les gens et tisser des liens d\u2019amiti\u00e9,\u00bb affirme Lamb.<\/p>\n
\u00c0 la fin de la saison 2012-2013, The Tam Heather Venerables a pris le temps de mettre \u00e0 l\u2019honneur 10 de ses membres les plus anciens, tous ayant plus de 90 ans, et dont bon nombre pratiquent toujours le curling plusieurs fois par semaine et participent aux tournois du club.<\/p>\n
\u00abIl existe tr\u00e8s peu d\u2019autres sports qu\u2019on peut commencer \u00e0 pratiquer tout jeune et continuer \u00e0 jouer m\u00eame en octog\u00e9naire et apr\u00e8s,\u00bb d\u00e9clare Lamb. \u00abJe regrette seulement de ne pas avoir commenc\u00e9 plus t\u00f4t.\u00bb<\/p>\nLes nonag\u00e9naires des Tam Heather Venerables ont \u00e9t\u00e9 mis \u00e0 l\u2019honneur \u00e0 la fin de la saison 2013-2014 (de gauche \u00e0 droite): Monte Miller (92), Bob McCowan, (96), Bill Wood (90), Ross Ellis (90), Gord Ramsay (90), Morley Lumby (94), Alex Smith (90), et un membre absent, r\u00e9cemment bless\u00e9 dans une chute, mais pr\u00e9sent dans les c\u0153urs de tous : Bill Reid (photo en m\u00e9daillon, 95 ans), (photo soumise par A.
