This is actually quite bonzer
Ever wanted to live in Australia?
Ever wanted to curl with a bunch of larrikins, who like to rage on?
Looking for an IT job, and perhaps a mate?
Think we’re having a lend of you? Think we’ve got kangaroos loose in the top paddock?
Think again, this is actually quite bonzer. Holy dooley!
It hasn’t been the best of times for Aussie Curling. The men’s team missed out on a berth at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games by a half-point... and then came word, if you recall, of the theft of one-third of the nation’s curling stones.
But the Aussies have shrugged off these disappointments and are steamrolling ahead with plans to grow the sport Down Under.
And they wants talented curlers to join them. That’s right... we are helping them announce an Australian High-Performance Curling Recruitment drive.
“We’re getting curling going in Melbourne with a new ice rink, and curling is running in Brisbane through the chilly Queensland winters,” says Steve Johns, a mainstay of the Australian men’s front end.
“We’re putting a case together for curling in Sydney.
“We’ve got a junior team, a women’s team, a senior men’s team and mixed doubles team.”
But the hunt is on for more curlers. Not only for recreation rookies to show interest, but for some talented players to sign up to compete for the green and gold ... in Australia, mate!
“We’re looking for quality curlers to join the Australian team,” says Johns. “Dave Nedohin or Scott Pfeifer are welcome, of course, but so is anyone who knows the sport pretty well.
“Even better if you work in Information Technology, we’ll find you a job. Even better if you’re single, we’ll find you a partner!”
This is a serious offer. Want the details?
