Curlers who will be attending the Kevin Martin’s Curling Academy first complete a registration form. After assessment of the information gathered on the forms, groups of eight are created based on experience and ability. On-ice, the curler-to-instructor ratio is 4:2 or 8:1 depending on the session.

On-ice and classroom sessions take place during the first two days of our three-day summer curling academy. The last-day wrap-up consists of “Game Situations Analysis” instructors evaluating the skills and strategy of attendees as they play on four-person teams.
