Simon Blyth – A busy umpire

The past two weekends have seen our member, Simon Blyth, busy umpiring in two Scottish Curling competitions.

The first being the Asham U17 Slam held at Hamilton Ice rink where Simon advised that he was very impressed by the standard of curling played by these youngsters, with some 14 year olds playing incredibly well.  Twenty four teams took part in this event.

This weekend Simon is on duty at his home rink of Greenacres where the Scottish Province Championships are taking place. Kelvinside CC will represent our Province in this competition and we wish them every success.

Simon’s next umpiring stint is at a competition with Simon has himself competed in on a number of occasions.  The Scottish Masters Championship Qualifiers at Greenacres.
