350th Anniversary Weekend Bonspiel

A major international bonspiel and associated social events will take place over the weekend of Thursday 27th September to Sunday 30th September to celebrate the 350th anniversary of the club. 20 teams will compete over the three days for a trophy specially commissioned for the event, and all participating players will receive unique mementoes of the occasion.  Kinross CC has invited the oldest curling clubs from a number of countries, and we are delighted that six such clubs have accepted the invitation to play. These are Royal Montreal (Canada), Milwaukee (USA), St Moritz (Switzerland), Dusseldorf (Germany), Rungsted (Denmark) and Preston (England). In addition, our friends from the neighbouring clubs of Orwell, Dunfermline, Kinross Ladies, Orwell Ladies, Bishopshire, Dollar and Devon Vale, Fossoway and Glenfarg are all participating.
