Welcome to the EYCA - Edmonton Youth Curling Association
Curling is more than a game — it’s where confidence grows, friendships form, and future leaders take shape.
At EYCA, we’re building more than curlers. We’re building community.
Whether you are a youth aged 12-17 who is brand new to curling or ready to take your game to the next level, our programs are designed to be fun, inclusive, and empowering for all skill levels.
Why Curling? Why EYCA?
Curling is a Sport For Life – It’s a sport you can enjoy for decades to come —whether for fun, fitness, friendly competition or at a professional level.
All Skill Levels Welcome – Whether you’ve never stepped on the ice or already love the sport, there’s a place for every youth at EYCA.
Build Skills On and Off the Ice – Strategy, teamwork, focus, and leadership are just a few of the benefits.
Fun & Friendship First – We create an environment where youth feel encouraged, connected, and excited to come back.
Don't just take our word for it...
