Weyburn's Travis Tokarz is on the ice practising for his last year in Junior Men's Curling.

Tokarz grew up in Weyburn and started curling at a young age at the Weyburn Curling Club with Donette Tracey in the after school program.

He attended St Dominic Savio and St. Michaels schools and graduated from Weyburn Comprehensive High school in 2014.

He will move into Men's Curling in the 2018-2019 season.

Tokarz placed third in the province in the 2016-2017 Junior Men's Competition and has put together a new team in hopes of winning Men's Junior Curling Provincials. The team consists of his lead Dallas Burnett who won silver at the 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games. Tokarz's second is Garrison Fox from the 2016-2017 season's team who won 2 silver medals and 2 gold medals in the 4-H curling at the provincial levels.

The team:

Lead: Dallas Burnett - won silver at the 2014 Saskatchewan Winter Games. 

Second: Garrison Fox - won 2 silver medals and 2 gold medals in the 4-H curling at the provincial levels.

Third: Josh Boettcher - won provincial level curling events.

Lloyd Helm who has been involved in the curling community for nearly 6 decades, is his new coach

In 2004, Lloyd Helm was inducted into the Saskatchewan Legends of Curling.

Tokarz recently learned one of the teams was accepted to curl in the College Clean Restoration Curling Classic which used to be called the Point Optical. The Classic will take place Sept 29th with the finals on Monday, October 2nd. He says the Classic will be a great experience to curl with such names as Brad Gushue, Kevin Koe, Brad Jacobs, Epping and more. 

After the draws are complete Tokarz will be posting the scheduled draws on his Team Tokarz facebook page.
