Laycock favourite at SaskTel Tankard
Most of Canada has already determined their provincial curling champions, but the west still has spots up for grabs; including the province of Saskatchewan.
Not for long, because this week the 2017 SaskTel Tankard men’s provincial championship kicks-off in Tisdale.
Sixteen teams will face off for the chance to represent the province at the Tim Horton’s Brier, held in St. John’s, N.L. from March 4 to 12.
Local teams leading the charge are a pair of skips from Kerrobert. Brad Heidt and his son Drew – who currently curls out of the Unity Curling Club – will both be competing. Brad is a two-time provincial champion, who curls alongside third Mark Lang, second Glen Heidt, and lead Dan Ormsby. He enters as the nine seed.
