On Sheet A, Gangrels 3 (Reynolds (S), Hogg, Henry, Mutter) played A&A2 (Mitchell (S), H Kennedy, Shanks, Smith) and surged into a commanding lead to be 8 shots up by the end of the 3rd. A&A retaliated by taking 5 shots over the next 2 ends but Gangrels 3 closed the door by taking singles in the last 2 ends to win 10-5.
On Sheet B, Gangrels 2 (Stubley (S), Galloway, Lawrence, Niblock) met a radically restructured A&A 1 (Todd (S), Black, Thow, J Cherry) and both Rinks struggled to correctly gauge the variations in the swing and pace of the ice. Notwithstanding, A&A1 took a lead of 4 in the first end but Gangrels 2 then scored 8 over the next 2 ends. A&A shortened the deficit by scoring 2 in the 4th end to lie 6-8 but Gangrels moved ahead again over the remaining 3 ends to shake hands 13-6 winners.

Four rinks set off for another day's curling at Stranraer. With two late call-offs, there was some extra sweeping for a few unfortunates!
Ayr and Alloway were drawn in the preliminary round of the Province Knockout, against Dalmellington, played on 2 February 2026. AACC rink was Charlie Steele (skip), David Gray, Ken Ireland and Ed Baines.
Ayr and Alloway is one the largest clubs that played at Ayr Ice Rink. With the closure of Ayr, we now play at Greenacres, with outings to Stranraer.
It is a particualrly friendly club, with over 40 members, and we are keen to invite anyone to join us. It maybe you would like to try curling for the first time, or you wish to have extra games. Just Send an email to the secretary for more information.
You will not find a friendlier club, but there is still a competitive element. Here are some of the competitions we used to play for when Ayr Ice Rink was open. Hopefully we get back to these competitions when a new curling rink opens.
We had eight rinks in the league playing each other once per
season. The Knockout was played as a league, with eight rinks. We entered two rinks in the Day League.
We played several inter-club "friendlies", and entered rinks in many of the open competitions including the Eglinton Jug and Rink Championship. We also played Points, Pairs and a Cue Competition.
We have a pre-season barbecue or picnic, group practice sessions, coaching and various social nights. The prizegiving and AGM are preceded by a meal held in the Prestwicj St Nicholas Golf Club.
