The Fairbanks Curling Club is excited to host a special Kevin Martin Academy weekend, September 25–27, featuring instruction from one of the greatest competitive curlers in the world.

Kevin Martin, known throughout the curling world as “The Old Bear,” is a Canadian curling legend, Olympic gold medalist, World Champion, four-time Canadian Brier Champion, and member of the World Curling Hall of Fame. As a past Olympian and one of the most accomplished skips in the sport, Kevin brings elite-level experience in strategy, shot-making, team systems, and competitive preparation.

This is a rare opportunity for Fairbanks curlers to receive direct instruction from one of the most successful and respected curlers in the game.

Sunday, September 27

Competitive Team Sessions — Limited to 6 teams - Sunday is reserved for competitive team work with Kevin Martin. Teams will have a designated 1.5 hour timeslot with Kevin. Event organizers will coordinate with your team to reserve particular timeslots on Sunday. If you have a preference of which session your team participates (late morning, early afternoon, late afternoon) please contact the event organizers ASAP! Teams must register together as a full team.
