In March this year Sean Becker and I had the privilege to represent New Zealand in the inaugur al World Mixed Doubles Curling Championships Vierumaki, Finland. Mixed Doubles features two teammates delivering five stones alternating with their opponents. The player throwing the first stone also throws the last, with the teammate delivering the three middle stones. Two additional stones are placed into play at the start of each end and the placement will determine who has last rock. What makes this game so different to the four person team game is that the athletes must sweep their own stones and no one can take out until the 4 th played stone. This makes for lots of stones in play and high scoring ends.

2008 World Senior Women’s Tournament The team first flew to England where friends of Christine's put us up just minutes from Fenton's rink in Kent where we got good keen ice and fine tips from Alistair Martin before heading to the competition in Vierumaki. Once in Vierumaki we settled into our very nice accommodation and enjoyed the competition. Although we never managed to win a game this year there were a number of positives In the pre competition Draw shot challenge we beat England.
