Bruce Mouat

D.O.B: 27/08/1994
Club: Gogar Park Curling Club
Birthplace: Edinburgh
Resides: Stirling
Work: Full time athlete
Introduced to curling: No family connections to curling but my dad saw a newspaper article advertising a junior club when I was six and took my brother along to try it and I started a year later aged seven.
Interests: Enjoy playing tennis, badminton, golf and squash and do a bit of running and swimming when possible.
Role model: Jeff Stoughton – former World Curling Champion
Best /favourite curling rink/s: The Hunt Club in Ottawa was a new kind of experience for me (very fancy) but also loved the ice rinks in Riga, Latvia and Budapest, Hungary (friendly two sheeters). My favourite curling rink would be Gogar Park as it is where I learnt to curl and I have fond memories of it.
Future Goals: Medal at a Winter Olympic Games.
Pre game rituals: No rituals but I try and have a good warm up before games.
