The AMCC was extremely pleased to be given the opportunity to host the Manitoba Tuck Delivery Training Session on the afternoon of 8 November 2015.
Thanks to the efforts of Connie Laliberte (Curl MB High Performance Director), ably assisted by long time "tuckers" Jon Mead and BJ Neufeld, approximately 20 curlers from a variety of City and Rural Curling Clubs were afforded the opportunity to fine tune their current delivery or learn the fundamentals of the Manitoba Tuck.
Following an hour of classroom instruction the participants took to our great ice for a video analysis of their delivery supplemented by constructive input from Connie, Jon and BJ. From all indications the "Manitoba Tuck" will continue to have a long future in our great game.
Question of the day - What do you call a curler with a partial flat foot/partial tuck delivery? |
Answer: A "flucker!" |
