Three Leagues to choose from!

Here’s all your chances to get on the ice this summer:

2024 Summer Thursday League

Registration for the Summer Thursday League has been extended! The Summer Thursday League is an 8 week league from Thursday June 13th to Thursday August 8th (no curling on July 4th). All dates run from 7:00pm to 9:30pm. The cost is $205 for nonmembers, $180 for members.
2024 Summer Sunday League

The Summer Sunday league is an 8 week league from Sunday June 23rd to Sunday August 11th. All dates run from 6:00pm to 8:30pm, except July 21st which runs from 6:45pm to 9:15pm. The cost is $205 for nonmembers, $180 for members.
Playing as a sub

If you can’t make enough of the league nights to warrant registering, you are still welcome to come and play occasionally as a sub. Substituting for one night is $30, or you can buy a 4 pack of sub spots for $100. You can purchase these under the Member Portal on the website once you create a log in.

Registration
Whether you are a member or not, the registration process is the same. To register for a league, you need to log in to our new website (same old URL, www.diamondstatecurling.org). From the menu at the top of the page, you go to the “Member Portal”. In the Member Portal you will see a link for an “Upcoming Leagues” tab. Under that tab you will see all three of the leagues mentioned above, follow the appropriate links to pay and register. We are no longer using Doodle Surveys to track availability. There is a link to an availability form on the left hand side of the league page which you can fill out before or after registration. Please, if you register, make sure you fill out the availability form. Unlike our previous process, you won’t automatically be sent to the form after registration. Listing your availability helps us form teams so we won’t have a team with 3 absences on the same week, hopefully.

NONMEMBERS – If you are new to curling, or an experienced curler who is new to the area, you are allowed to play in one league before becoming a member if you want to try it out first. After your first league you will have to become a member if you’d like to curl again, it’s a requirement of our insurance company. Members of surrounding GNCC clubs are welcome to join us for however many leagues you want because you are already covered by the same insurance we have through the GNCC.
MEMBERS – If you were already a paid member before we switched websites, you are still a member. You may just need to update your password. If you weren’t already a paid member and would like to become, our membership rate is $100 per year. It renews in October, so it’s currently prorated to $50 for new members. Membership comes with a $25 discount for 8 week leagues, and a $10 discount for 4 week leagues. Membership also gives you membership to the GNCC (our regional organization), gets you covered under our insurance, and gives you voting rights at the Annual Meeting in May.
See you out on the ice for some fun Summer Curling!

Good Curling,
