22 Oct 2021 –Seven teams contested a tightly fought NZ Junior Championship over the last weekend of October at MCI Naseby. The opening game set the tone for the rest of the tournament when the eventual Men's winners stole an extra end win.

In the true Spirit of Curling, each team was made up of a range of ages and abilities with more experienced curlers spread out among the younger players.

This made for a great competition with some very close games that were down to the last stone. All competitors should feel proud of their efforts and skills demonstrated over the weekend.
