Bottcher joins Team Gushue

Oct 15, 2024 | 4:16 PM

There are now two Albertans on Brad Gushue’s curling team.

Brendan Bottcher has joined Beaverlodge’s Geoff Walker on the Brier champions.

Bottcher will replace EJ Harnden at second.

Harden and the team recently went their separate ways.

Bottcher is also a former Brier champ, winning in 2021.

In a new release, Bottcher calls joining the Gushue rink “an incredible opportunity” and “an honour to join such an accomplished team.”

The new rink’s first event together will be the upcoming Pan Continental Curling Championships to be played from October 27 to November 2 in Lacombe.
