Team Hahn

Team Hahn would like to introduce you to the exciting sport of Curling, a sport that is immersed in tradition and history and is our team’s passion. As you may or may not be aware Curling is a challenging sport, a game of fun and respect that has its roots as deep as 500 years beginning in Scotland. Canadians have cultivated the sport in the past 100 years making it an important part of our sporting culture.

Team Hahn consists of four talented and experienced young men that have curled together competitively from 2013 to 2017. As a second year U21 Team, we placed third at the U21 Provincials early January 2017. During the 2016-2017 season, the team won the U21 OJCT Huntley Curling Club Bonspiel held in November. At the Junior Slam Series held in the greater Toronto area, Team Hahn competed at the Stu Sells event and curled against the American teams that were present and also won their game against the U21 World Silver Medalists at the U21 Players Championship. This year Ryan and Riley curled with two other players in U18 Provincials and placed second. Jeremy and Thomas qualified to play in the U21 Mixed Doubles Provincials. As a U18 team, Team Hahn qualified in all competitive events culminating in the U18 provincial championships for two years in a row.

Team Hahn curled this year in the Tuesday evening Men’s league at the Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club placing second after round robin play. We had a successful second U21 year and we hope to exceed our goals once again in 2017/2018.

In 2015, Team Hahn participated in the Next Generation Program which is a high performance development program supported by the Ontario Curling Council and Ontario Curling Association. Their provincial and national coaches were enlisted to help train the Next Generation teams to standards required to win Olympic and World Championships. The focus is on athletes who are 5-8 years away from National Team Progam entry.

We had a successful year and we hope to exceed our goals once again in 2017-2018.
