Offspring of big names in Canadian curling arrive at Scotties Tournament of Hearts
The offspring of some of the biggest names in Canadian curling have landed on the national stage, starting with Kelly Middaugh making her Scotties Tournament of Hearts debut Friday in Kamloops, B.C.
“I know there’s going to be a lot of people watching to see if I can live up to the family name a bit,” Kelly said. “I get that at pretty much any ‘spiel I go to or any new team I’m on. “They’ve watched the work you’ve done. They understand the work,” Jones said. “They also understand some of the pain you’ve gone through with the highs and the lows you get from winning and losing.
She also was pregnant with Emily, also a promising junior curler, the first time she skipped Ontario in 2001 in Sudbury.“I can tell you right now I’m welling up,” Sherry told The Canadian Press. “You want your children to be healthy, happy and content in their lives. Many twenty-something curlers in Canada struggle with the transition from the junior ranks to men’s and women’s competitive curling.
Added Jones: “When he asks me if I can hold the broom for him, he knows he’s going to get good information he can trust.
