Rock Creek Curling offers developmental curling classes and advanced skill/gameplay courses and dedicated leagues for youth age 7-17. Youth curlers can also curl in weeknight and Saturday doubles leagues upon request and at the discretion of the Youth directors.

Both of our new curler courses can be repeated and progressed as many times as necessary. If you have questions on the best place for your athlete, please email Sean at sean@rockcreekcurling.com to discuss the course in which your child will thrive and stay motivated.

We offer a youth curler membership at Rock Creek Curling for all our youth curlers who participate in the GRG Youth Curling and in weeknight/Saturday doubles leagues. Our youth members receive all of the same great benefits as our adult members, plus some fun things just for them! We also require a USA Curling Youth Individual Membership for youth curlers in GRG Curling and leagues.

Membership at Rock Creek Curling or with USA Curling is not required for participants in our new curler youth curling courses.

Our new and novice curler courses are designed to build skill and confidence on ice while learning the basics of the game and focusing on fun. New and returning curlers in grades 1-5 meet Saturdays at 10 am and begin with an emphasis on gaining stability and balance on the ice using drills and games. Returning curlers in this cohort will build off of previous experience to continue their growth and knowledge of the game while working on throwing full sheet.

New curlers in middle school and high school curlers grades 6+ meet Mondays at 5 pm. They also begin with an emphasis on balance and stability, while increasing their strength, refining their release, sweeping, and building the basic knowledge of gameplay. These curlers practice and learn alongside our more experienced curlers, providing an easy transition into our GRG youth curling program when ready.

Our Game Ready Gang is the next step – when your curler is consistently delivering rocks down a full sheet of ice and ready to (or already playing) multi-end games, this is the place to be for advanced instruction, gameplay, strategy development, and lots of fun with other youth curlers. RCC youth membership and USA Curling youth membership is required for the GRG courses.
