‘Come and try wheelchair curling’ session offers an introduction for individuals with a disability, to try out wheelchair curling in a fun and informal setting. The event will take place at the Vancouver Curling club at the Hillcrest Centre, next to Queen Elizabeth Park. The centre was the curling venue during the 2010 Olympics and Paralympics.

The aim of this session is to raise awareness of adaptive sport opportunities that exist and create a positive introductory experience!
