Biggar’s Silvernagle ready for World Senior Women’s Curling Championships
To say it has been an exciting curling season for the Silvernagle family would certainly be an understatement.
Robyn Silvernagle and her rink representing the Twin Rivers Curling Club in North Battleford had a very impressive year, including her first career victory at the Boundary Ford Curling Classic in Lloydminster in November followed by her second straight appearance in the finals of the Viterra Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Melfort in January.
Not to be outdone, mom Anita Silvernagle and the Sherry Anderson rink captured back-to-back Canadian Senior Women’s Titles and has earned the right to represent Canada at the World Championships beginning Saturday in Ostersund, Sweden.
Anita, who lives in Biggar, plays lead stone on the rink which includes Patty Herksikow, Brenda Goertzen and Anderson. She said going to the World Championships is exciting for the team.
