July 2, 2008 11:28 AM - Mississauga’s Fran Todd was elected the Canadian Curling Association’s
chair of the Board of Governors at the annual general meeting in Gatineau, Quebec on June 21.
A former president of the Ontario Curling Association, Todd brings a lot of experience to the position.
The Dixie Curling Club member was both a Canadian and world senior champion with skips Anne Dunn and Jill Greenwood.
Todd beat out New Brunswick’s Beth Sullivan in the all-female run to the top job.
“I’m really looking forward to it,” Todd said of the appointment. “It’s going to be an exciting year.”
The CCA manages a number of major Canadian curling championships, including the Tim Hortons Brier, Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Canada Cup and M&M Meat Shops Canadian Juniors, in addition to partnering with the World Curling Federation in hosting the Continental Cup and the Ford World (men’s or women’s) Curling Championship, when staged in Canada.
The CCA also directs the high performance programs for Canada’s national elite athletes and provides various programs and services for the member associations Canada-wide.
