This was my brother's last game for this league. Two of his teammates couldn't make it so he played lead while his skip played second (to practice sweeping more). Two instructors played Skip and Vice. Maybe a slightly unfair setup, but I guess it's still an instructional league, so it doesn't really matter. He was impressed with the opposing team's strategy of throwing a lot of guards and really protecting whatever they had in the house. However, my brother's team did win their game and they finished their 5 game season 3-2. Not bad.
My brother felt a lot more confident in his new shoes this time aroiund so that's good. If you haven't bought curling shoes yet, definitely look into that or make your own.
His team got some shirts made and my brother got one for me too. His artist friend drew it and it's very cool. I'll post it when I get permission from the artist. (It may also violate copyright, so I'm not positive I should post it.)
My brother's already planning on playing in the next five week league and is still trying to secure a spot for the Golden Gate Bonspiel. In his words: "I'm surprised at how into it I've gotten."
