2023-2024 Winnipeg Youth High Performance Curling Program
The Youth Advanced Program is dedicated to young curlers wanting to train in a competitive and fun environment with the focus on developing curling specific skills and training, networking with other curlers at or above their skill level, and an introduction to the sport science aspects of sport. The program provides a pathway for youth into our High-Performance program. It will take place on Tuesday's at the Heather Curling Club from 5:45-7:15pm.
The weekly on-ice training sessions will include an emphasis on technical delivery and sweeping skills plus some focus on strategy, weight control and judgement, and shot making. This will be done by Competition Coach Trained and Competition Coach Certified instructors using technical equipment such as video analysis equipment, SMART Broom sweeping analysis, and wireless speed traps for weight control drills.
There will also be an introduction to sport science areas of sport such as mental performance and nutrition.
