On February 13th, 2015 the BCC curling team made its way to the Coldwater & District Curling Club. This was the first time in several years that both the girls' and boys' teams have advanced to the playoffs where they played some of the county's best teams. The Barrie Central Curling Team is one of the smallest sport teams that Central currently has; and it consists of ten members and is coached by Mr. Lamoureux, Mrs. Wetelainen and Mrs.Cox. This team is a tight-knit family and uses any game as a way to gain experience.
This was the first time in many years that the Barrie Central Curling Team has advanced into the playoffs. This is where teams play a number of games against a number of schools. If a team wins they move on and play more games to see who gets to the end, where there are a final two teams that then can advance to the GBSSA's. The BCC girls’ team played the Bear Creek Kodiaks who they had beaten in a game previously earlier in the season. The girls were put into situations that were hard to maneuver through but played their hardest out on the ice to try to advance. The BCC boys’ team played Sir Frederick Banting S.S. who they also played before earlier in the season; that game, they unfortunately lost.
Both the boys and the girls played extremely well and are proud of the way they played on February 13th. Although the teams did not advance any further into the playoffs, the teams' members are proud where they ended a fantastic season. The teams played their best all season and they have made it the farthest that the BCC curling team has reached for many years. This was a great opportunity for both teams and a great achievement for Barrie Central.
