#BetweenTheSheets: Can YOU Win Olympic Gold?
Enter the #TwineTime 50/50 pool and navigate the draw path to gold
Have you caught Olympic fever yet?
We are only a few weeks away from the Opening Ceremonies of Beijing 2022 and kicking off the pinnacle of sport.
As we saw in 2018, curling will be out of the hack before the lighting of the Olympic cauldron at the Opening Ceremonies. Mixed doubles will hit the ice in less than two weeks. The first rock is set to be thrown on Wednesday February 2.
The Opening Ceremonies are a few days later on Friday February 4.
Curling will run from pre-Opening Ceremonies right through to the final day of competition on Sunday February 22.
Yup, a full 19 straight days of competition for the sport. The only sport, once again, to operate the full duration...and then some.
And yes, I recognize many sports fans, curling fans included, are not supportive of the 2022 Winter Olympics for a handful of reasons. From COVID concerns to Chinese human rights issues to everything in between and elsewhere, these are legit reasons to not be in support of these games.
However, lets not punish our athletes by not wishing them the best of luck and supporting them as they chase their dreams. We still can wish all the athletes best of luck competing and chasing not only Olympic medals but personal bests.
And celebrate the accomplishment of even qualifying and competing at the Winter Olympics. A great achievement for any athlete in any sport.
To those competing, congrats and good luck!
Now as a fan, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you like watching curling?
- Do you like raising money for a good cause?
- Do you like winning money?
If you answered yes to at least one (hopefully all) of the questions above, read on dear friend. #TwineTime has a deal for you!
