Dumbarton Curling Club

Welcome to Our Site

"Since we have enjoyed good fellowship on the ice, and are resolved that we will meet and form ourselves in a band of brotherhood and fellowship, and that we will be called Dumbarton Curling Club." - These are the opening words in the minutes of the first meeting held in 1815.

Membership is open to both male and female players of all ages and abilities.

You don't require any expensive equipment, just a pair of training shoes and a jumper, as all other equipment will be provided.

Coaching from our own qualified coach will always be available to our members, particularly for those who are new to curling, and our more experienced players are always willing to provide advice and assistance.

More information pertaining to Dumbarton Curling Club can be found on our About Us page.

Jim MacDonald Selected for US Tour 2027

jimmacdonaldScottish Curling have named Jim MacDonald as part of their 20-man squad to represent Scotland on the 2027 US Tour.

The three-week tour, taking place across January and February 2027, continues the historic curling rivalry between Scotland and the USA. First contested in 1952, the Herries Maxwell Trophy represents decades of friendship, hospitality and shared passion for the Roaring Game across the Atlantic.

The most recent contest, hosted in Scotland in 2022, saw the United States claim the trophy. In 2027, Scotland will be determined to respond on American ice and bring the trophy home once again.
