Al was very proud of all the Swiss curlers who were so committed to training and competing in order to reach their goals. In honour of his time as Swiss National Coach, I am working with a Swiss company and a contact there to provide prizes for the winners of the Swiss women’s and mixed doubles championships. These were the teams that Al travelled with to European and World Championships.
I’ve now entered into a three year agreement with watch company, Solarum. Customized watches will be given to the Swiss champions, with a small curling stone on the front and the event and year engraved on the back. Surrounding the words on the back will be 6 stars, representing the six teams that won World and European championships with Al as coach.
