World Curling Tour – Sept. 10

Teams pursuing mid-season form to kick off 2021-22 curling season

The start of the 2020 season was marred by uncertainty. Events were postponed, called off, and in some cases cancelled halfway through. Competitive curlers across the country are anxious to avoid a similar situation in 2021, and so far it’s going well.

Take the Oakville Curling Club in Ontario, for example.

This weekend, it will host the Stu Sells Oakville Tankard, the fourth major competition in the facility in as many weeks. 

Brad Jacobs (Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.), who won last week’s Oakville Labour Day Classic, will headline a 22-team field that also includes Toronto’s John Epping. Both Jacobs and Epping already have their berths to the Tim Hortons Curling Trials, presented by AGI, secured, while many of the other of the weekend’s participants will be gearing up for the last few qualifying events.

Teams skipped by Matt Dunstone (Regina), Colton Flasch (Saskatoon), Jason Gunnlaugson (Morris, Man.), Glenn Howard (Penetanguishene, Ont.) and Mike McEwen (West St. Paul, M.B.) will hit the ice in Oakville, trying to find their top form before the Canadian Curling Trials Direct-Entry event coming up in Ottawa beginning September 22nd. 

Jacobs won the most recent Oakville bonspiel by defeating Jonathan Beuk (the team formerly skipped by Scott McDonald out of Kingston, Ont.) on Labour Day in the final. One week earlier, Howard also defeated Beuk in the final to win the Oakville Fall Classic.

In most seasons, the priority for top-level curlers is winning money, earning points, and attempting to qualify for Grand Slam events by improving their World or Canadian ranking. However, this season rounding into peak form at the right time is the most important thing. With spots to the Tim Hortons Curling Trials and Home Hardware Pre-Trials events on the line in just a few weeks, finding “mid-season” form can’t wait until mid-season.

With $40,000 in the prize purse, this weekend’s Stu Sells will offer plenty of competition.

The women’s draw features teams in similar situations. Winnipeg’s Jennifer Jones is the only team in this week’s field with a Trials berth secured, although Tracy Fleury (East St. Paul, Man.) – who also has a spot in Saskatoon – won last week’s Oakville event with a victory against Suzanne Birt (Montague & Cornwall, P.E.I.) in the final.

Kerry Galusha (Yellowknife, N.W.T.) will hit the ice for the first time this season, gearing up for the Canadian Curling Pre-Trials Direct Entry event later this month.

Meanwhile, in Edmonton, the Alberta Curling Series gets underway with the Saville Shoot-Out. Twenty-five teams including Trials qualifiers Kerri Einarson (Gimli, Man.) and Rachel Homan (Ottawa) will play a modified round-robin event at the Saville Sports Centre.

Laura Walker (Edmonton), Kelsey Rocque (Edmonton), Casey Scheidegger (Lethbridge, Alta.), and Corryn Brown (Kamloops, B.C.) are all in the field preparing for the Trials Direct-Entry event in Ottawa.  

Jessie Hunkin of North Battleford, Sask. and Sarah Wark (Abbotsford, B.C.) will also be in Edmonton, gearing up for the Pre-Trials Direct-Entry event.

Also of note, Chelsea Carey debuts her new-look team out of Regina, featuring Jolene Campbell, Stephanie Schmidt, Jennifer Armstrong and Rachel Erickson.

History of Rostov Oblast

In ancient times, the territory around the Don River was part of the region called Scythia (the Greeks), Stsitiya or Tanais named after the Tanais River, the present Don River (the Romans), Sarmatia (the Roman historians of the 1st century). In Russian chronicles of the 14th and 15th centuries, this land was called “Field” or “Wild Field”. Since the second half of the 16th century, the Moscow tsars, starting with Ivan the Terrible, already called all Cossack land simply “Don”.

The ancient people settled in the lands along the Don River since the Stone Age. In the 8th-7th centuries B.C., the Scythians began to settle in the steppes to the north of the Black Sea, between the Don and the Danube. Settlements on the territory of the present Rostov region were first mentioned by Herodotus. A lot of archaeological finds were found in numerous Scythian burial mounds: iron swords, daggers, special items of horse decoration, golden and silver items.

In the 6th-5th centuries B.C., the Greeks began colonization of coastal areas of the Black Sea. In 480 B.C., their largest towns (Olvia, Tira, Hersonissos) united in the kingdom of Bosporus with the capital in Panticapaeum (present Kerch). It was engaged in active trade with the Mediterranean towns.

After long and turbulent history with periods of prosperity and decline, the Greek towns fell under the blows of nomadic peoples migrating through the Don steppes from East to West. For several centuries, this flourishing region turned into a wasteland.

More Historical Facts…

In the 4th century, the Avars settled on the Don land. After them the Khazars came here, who founded their settlements and built a fortress called Sarkel. Constantly raiding the southern lands of Kievan Rus, they were a serious threat to the Old Russian state.

Later, the Pechenegs came here and the Polovtsian tribes after them. The Polovtsi captured the steppe areas of the Don, Kuban, the Azov Sea and ravaged the outskirts of Kievan Rus for decades reaching Pereyaslavl, Chernihiv and even Kiev.

In the early 13th century, the first wave of the Mongol invasion reached the Russian land. In 1223, the combined forces of the Russian princes and the Polovtsi clashed with the Mongols in the Battle of the Kalka River (the tributary of the Kalmius, which flows into the Azov Sea to the north of the Don). Due to poor coordination Russian and Polovtsian troops suffered a complete defeat.

It was the beginning of the period of Russian history known as the Mongol yoke, which lasted until 1480. In the 1470s, the Azov steppes were occupied by the Turks of the Ottoman Empire and became a constant threat on the south-eastern borders of Russia.

In the mid-16th century, runaway serfs began to settle in the area of the Don River. Later, they became known as the Don Cossacks. In 1560, the Cossack town of Cherkassk was founded. Gradually, from the late 16th - early 17th centuries, the Cossacks began to cooperate with the Russian military, economic and political systems.

In the 18th century, the land of the Don Cossacks became part of the Russian Empire and lost its autonomy. The Cossacks actively opposed this fact, which led to the peasant wars and uprisings headed by Stepan Razin, Kondrat Bulavin, Emelyan Pugachev. The Cossacks were included in the Russian army as irregular troops. They had special rights and privileges. The Cossacks were good soldiers and participated in all military campaigns conducted by the Russian Empire.

By the end of the 18th century, about 225 thousand people lived in the Don region, half a century later - 775 thousand. By the middle of the 19th century, two centers formed on the Don: Novocherkassk (military and administrative center) and Rostov-on-Don (industrial and commercial center). In 1859, the population of the region was about 900 thousand.

During the Russian Civil War, this region was one of the centers of the White movement and became the scene of bloody battles. The final blow to the Don Cossacks, who survived in the Soviet Union after the Civil War, was decossackization, dispossession and famine of 1932-1933. Rostov Oblast was established in 1937.

The shooting of a peaceful demonstration in Novocherkassk became the blackest page in the history of the 1960s. On June 2, 1962, employees of the local electric locomotive plant with their families came to the rally with demands for higher wages. In response, the troops were deployed in the city. When people tried to break through to the building of the city executive committee, the troops opened fire. According to official figures, 26 people were killed and 87 wounded.

The Best Things to Do in Rostov-on-Don

Contributor / Journalist

The city of Rostov-on-Don lies all along the banks of the Don river. It is a beautiful place to wander around; there are many green spaces, and during the summertime, you can bask in the sun or go on a relaxing boat ride down the river, a glass of wine in hand. Here are some of the top things to do in Rostov-on-Don.

Take a quick walk along pushkin street.

Pushkin Street is the main promenade in the downtown city area. The street, named after Alexander Pushkin, is full of cafés, bars , restaurants and historical statues, along with beautiful flowers and trees; it’s an ideal place to spend a relaxing weekend. Don State Public Library, located in a unique modern building and one of the biggest libraries outside of Moscow, also sits on Pushkin Street.

Explore the embankment

Take a walk on the embankment by the slow-flowing Don river. Street performers entertain and provide activities for the public during the summer months, and many people opt to take a boat ride on the water. You can even get on a disco boat here and dance the night away.

Try local food at Rostov’s Central Market

This place has everything that a Russian regional market should have; meat and fish, sweets, ice cream, excellent salads, and a few delicacies from Korea and Georgia. You won’t find many souvenirs for tourists here, but it is still worth wandering the stalls.

Visit the local parks and gardens

There are numerous beautiful parks located around the city. You can discover some of the main green spaces simply by walking along Pushkin Street, and there are more in the centre near Bolshaya Sadovaya Street.

Take a look at Bogoroditsa Cathedral

Go on a day trip to azov.

Once you’ve checked out all the main historical places in Rostov-on-Don, and you have some time to spare, you should make sure to stop by the nearby town of Azov. Steeped in history, the town once served as a Turkish outpost, and today is home to the remains of Azov Castle.
