Practice Time

All five Bond Girls have arrived safe and sound with enough time to make it to practice. We get 10 minutes per sheet on half of this amazing 8 sheeter. The Richmond Curling Club is beautiful with a great 2nd floor viewing station and bar. The ice is fast as we expected. We hope to adjust quickly to the proper weight to prepare for our first game which will be a few hours later against Colorado. Looks like ice really curls into the center and hangs out on the edges a bit. If we are not careful, the rocks will fly out of play or won't curl as much as we expected.

We had some surprising changes to the weather. It's still cold, but there was actually sunshine and blue skies. There's also another addition to the Bond Girl team, Grandmama Domino, all the way from Hawaii.  This is her first time in Canada, and she's excited to spend it with Little Domino, despite "extreme" weather adjustments.

Also, we are debuting our new t-shirt logo.  Here's what they look like. For all those interested in donning our Team Bond Girls T-shirts and pins, we have them available for sale on www.bondgirlscurling.com  Thank you in advance for your support because without YOU, we would not be able to curl competitively and represent Hollywood Curling/West Coast/competitive women curling. Sending out love to all our fans!

Well, the ice is smooth, the rocks are curly, and the company is sweet! This is a fantastic start to the curling tournament. Up next some highlights of our 1st game...
