It was an exciting day one as The Battle – the Ultimate Curling Challenge began at the PLEX in Port Elgin (Saugeen Shores).
It was standing room only at the sold-out event that brought Canada’s top curlers, Team Rachel Homan, Team Brad Jacobs and the Gold-medal Paralympic team to Saugeen Shores. The crowd knows their curling and cheered on the shots that were made by all teams.
The event sold out early and, therefore, live broadcasting was put in place so that those who couldn’t get tickets could, and can, watch the event – CBC Youtube channel, Rockchannel.com, CBC Gem, CBCSports.ca, and the Home Team Network with top top announcers, Glen Howard, Marilyn Brodogh and Mike Harris.
As part of the three-day event, was the Curling Camp where the pro curlers gave their voices of experience to the 80 participants who registered for the sold-out camp.
