Applications are Now Open for Curling 360° – ASN project 2025/26

With a very successful Curling 360° – ASN project so far this year (24/25), we are delighted to announce applications are now open for another year! Once again, this coming year, the project is being funded by the Leslie Ingram Brown Legacy, administered by Scottish Curling Trust – a huge thank you to them for their support. Without funding, projects like these would be unable to run, and therefore, we are very grateful for their generosity. 

If you would like more information or to be considered for next year’s Curling 360° – ASN project (25/26), please head to the following link:

As a reminder, if you have your own floor curl or new age curling kit as part of your school / Active Schools team, we would love for you to still be part of the project, giving you access to the training, resources, awards and competitions along with all the other schools. 

If you have any questions, please do let me know, and we would really appreciate it if you could share this information with your contacts also.
