Coyote Curling Club Mission Statement
Promote access to and participation in the sport of curling, and commit to its international tradition of fellowship, sportsmanship and team competition
OUR COYOTES CURLING CLUB
Club History
In 2003, a group of people came together with the idea to bring curling to the Arizona desert. The club began playing at the Ice Den in Scottsdale, an ice rink arena, that they shared with hockey and figure skating. In 2004, the Coyotes hosted the very first Desert Ice Bonspiel. Now a fully operational 501(c)(3) non-profit with a dedicated facility, the Coyotes Curling Club has been the coolest place in the desert over 20 years.

The Coyotes Curling Club operates in a 15,000 square foot facility which features dedicated curling ice and a licensed lounge.
