Instructors Take To The Ice To "Learn To Curl"

USCA flew out instructors to certify our Coyotes members for the Level 1 Curling Instructor Certification.  We also had a component for alternative deliveries including a piece from Patrick McDonald, a World Olympic wheelchair curler.

Check out some pics from our "on ice" and "off ice" training!

Eyes up and smile!

And, of course, one of our instructors photo bombed our selfie!

See how much fun we are having?!? This is why you need to come out and play with us & Learn To Curl at Coyotes Curling Club! And yes, we have dedicated ice in the desert.  :)
