Leagues
Something for players at every level
Leagues are the heart of our curling experience. Whether you’re looking to improve at the highest competitive levels or looking to join your first league — or everything in between — we offer a variety of leagues with different levels of competition, designed for curlers at all experience levels.
Find your leagues below. For most leagues you don’t need a team to sign up, and some of our leagues are designed to mix-up teams each week for maximum socializing. Every league includes time for broomstacking after the game (and for some the snacks are the real competition, though everyone wins). If you have any questions about leagues, please contact us!
Registration is open to members of SFBACC. With the exception of Learner's League, club membership is required. Not a member yet? Find the right level of membership for you and become a member to register for leagues.
A note for new curlers
We know it can be hard to know which league to sign up for at the start. We’ve all been there! We recommend starting with Learner’s League, 5-and-Under League, and leagues at the social and recreational level to gain experience and grow your confidence in a game and team setting. You don’t need a team to sign up, and you can be assured that curlers in all our leagues are excited to welcome new curlers to the game. Playing with more experienced teammates might sound nerve wracking at first, but it is one of the best ways to learn and develop as a newer curler! If you have any questions about which league is right for you, we’re here to help. Reach out to us with any questions.
Priority Registration opens March 10 at noon PST for PLUS and Founder’s Members.
General Registration opens March 11 at noon PST for all members.
(Registration closes four days before each league starts.)
