CHALLENGING GOALS & DREAMS:
1: Win a Gold Medal in my particular age group in team curling at the 2015 World Winter Masters Games in Italy on site of the 2006 Winter Olympic Games.
World Masters Games are recognized by the International Olympic Committee, and, draw more participants than the Olympic Games. " Passion " is the only qualification for entry, and participants register individually or as teams, not representing countries.
It is quite common to find elderly entrants at World Masters Games who, decades earlier, participated in or won medals at International Olympic Games and other World Sporting Championships. First held in 1985, they are now staggered every two years ( like the Olympic Games ) between the Summer & Winter World Masters Games.
