History

In the beginning…….      

Rev John Kerr, that authority on all matters curling in Scotland prior to 1890, states in “The History of Curling” that there was curling in Earlston (Berwick) ante 1756. No other source has been unearthed as to the playing of curling in Earlston at that time but with such an authoritative voice as Kerr, who can argue?   So the story of curling in Earlston or as it was then known, Ersiltoun began before 1756.

The club however, was affiliated to the Royal Caledonian Curling Club in 1871.
