Welcome to the RA Curling Club
Season : September to March
The RACC is proud to offer leagues for all ages and skill levels. As an active club, we offer day and evening leagues, junior and little rock curling. Our curlers range from novice to competitive curlers. If you are new to our club, new in the area or new to curling, our volunteer convenors and executive committee members will help you locate a team. New curlers enjoy free instructional clinics courtesy of our certified instructors and participate in our mentoring program. The club hosts a number of fun, social events and all members are welcome to participate. We also host a number of intra-club events; included are the Men’s Metro, City of Ottawa, the OVCA Mixed, the Women’s Crystal Heart, OCA and LCA events.

Evening Leagues
The RACC offers various curling options. Individuals interested in joining a fixed league who are not already part of a team, should contact Mark Fish at 613-736-6237 to be put on the “single curler” list which is made available to the league convenors.
