Meet the Team

Team Jacques is a newly formed men's curling team based in Alberta, featuring Ryan Jacques joined by a core group that has competed together for several seasons. With our mix of proven chemistry and renewed energy, we're ready to compete at the highest level.

As we head into the 2025/2026 season, our focus is on breaking into the Tier 2 Grand Slam circuit and establishing ourselves among the top teams in Alberta. Our ultimate goal is to represent Alberta at the 2026 Brier in St. John's, NL and continue building toward national prominence in Canadian curling.
