Monaco Curling Teams Impress at First French Championships Appearance

In a notable development for Monaco's sporting scene, the principality's curling teams participated in the French Championships for the first time. The event, hosted last weekend in Geneva, saw both the men's and women's teams from the Skating Club of Monaco compete with commendable skill, ultimately achieving fourth place in League B. This entry into the championships marks a significant step in the teams’ competitive journey.

The debut was as much about gaining valuable experience as it was about competing, with the Monegasque teams showing tenacity and skill against seasoned opponents. This performance not only demonstrated their potential but also set the stage for future competitions, including the European Curling Championships scheduled for 2026. The Skating Club of Monaco, known for its initiatives in promoting winter sports, has thus broadened its sporting repertoire, enhancing the club’s standing and ambitions on the international stage.

This initial foray into the French Championships has provided the Monaco teams with crucial exposure to high-level curling competition, laying a strong foundation for further development. Moving forward, the focus will be on refining strategies and building on the experience gained in Geneva, with aspirations to elevate Monaco's profile in the European curling community.
