Indoor Grand Match

Six Fullarton players took part in the 2015 Indoor Grand Match on Saturday. This takes place every 5 years, and curlers from the North compete against curlers from the South. 2,376 curlers took part, in 17 ice rinks across Scotland. Fullarton were drawn to play at Stranraer, so Richard, Margaret, Jim and Mara set off bright and early, as they were on the ice at 10.00am. They had a very close match against Stranraer 1 (who were playing for the North (long story, don't ask!!), just losing out 8 - 9. Alison and Ronnie also took part - playing for Troon Portland and Gangrels respectively. This was a really enjoyable day - look out for the next one in 2020, and consider putting your name forward. Good news is that the South won - by 2154 shots to 1928. Have a look at the RCCC website for a full report

Note the smart jackets (which will look even better once we have Club logo on them!)
