Club History
Founded in 2016, a group of enthusiastic curlers and supporters got together with the idea of bringing curling to extreme Northwestern Pennsylvania. It was a natural fit with our long winters, clubs in surrounding cities like Buffalo, Cleveland and Pittsburgh, as well as lots of fun-loving people looking for friendship and activity.
The group included curlers that had been traveling to a club in Cleveland and several supporters from Allegheny College that had spent part of their academic careers in Minnesota and New York where curling clubs had been a part of the culture.
The name French Creek Curling Club was chosen as French Creek, with its own long and important history, is a significant geographic feature flowing through parts of Erie, Crawford, Venago, and Mercer Counties in Pennsylvania as well as, Chautauqua County in New York.

FCCC Begins Play at Our New Home, ERIEBANK Sports Park
After splitting time in the 2021/2022 season between the MARC (Meadville Area Recreation Complex) in Meadville and the Flo Fabrizio Ice Center in Erie, we received an extremely welcoming offer to move 2022/2023 club activities to the ERIEBANK Sports Park in Erie County. This move allows us to expand and improve our ice times, offer more curling, more flexible options for members, and engage the Erie community with more learn-to-curl opportunities.
