Strathendrick Curlers at Pitlochry Ice Rink

The Club had an "Away Day" to Pitlochry Atholl Curling Rink on Saturday 20 March 2004. We were able to field 6 teams playing one session in the morning and a second after lunch with the team members shuffled for the second session.
Each session comprised two four end matches which were scored on points, then ends, then shots up. Prizes were awarded separately for the two sessions.


 
  

The morning session was closely fought with two teams ending on 3 points.

The teams could not be separated on ends as each managed to win 5.

Norman Robertson's team of Betty Meikle, Jim Walker and Rita Harris ran out winner winners by virtue of finishing 5 shots up.
