Auckland
Please help NZ build a new curling rink!
After many years the Auckland Curling Club are finally preparing to build a dedicated 4-sheet curling rink to give our curlers proper curling ice to play on, and to help the sport grow. Auckland is New Zealand's largest city, we plan to convert a warehouse close to the CBD, and we need some extra capital to complete it.
If you are able to donate even a small amount to complete this project, we would love to have your support!
Around 750 people in NZ are curling, and Auckland has the largest club with 200+ members, including a secondary school league and 17 NZ representative curlers who compete at Olympic and World Championship level. Unfortunately there are no curling rinks in the North Island and Auckland Curling rents ice from a skating rink 2 nights a week during the May to October season to support its schools and club league. This means we are playing on inferior ice, with one hack, and have to carry our stones to and from the field of play. This significantly restricts the Club’s ability to grow the sport, support players to train locally, host competitions, and offer public access.
With a dedicated curling rink we can meet the growing interest in the sport, create a valuable community asset for people of all ages and abilities, provide a venue for schools, public, corporate and social use, as well as national and international competitions.
Thank you so much for your support, and please share this page to help us reach our goal.
