Year of Induction: 1997
Barry McPhee men’s curling rink is the only Kamloops rink ever to represent the city at the Canadian Brier. Barry McPhee skipped his rink to both the 1981 and 1986 B.C. Championships and resultant Brier berths where the McPhee rink finished fourth in 1981 and third in 1986. On both occasions, they reached the playoff round with 7-4 records each year in the 12-team round-robin. The 1981 rink was comprised of McPhee at skip, with third Robbie Kuroyama, second Brian Eden, and lead Grant Young. In 1986, only the lead position changed with Dave Schleppe moving in while Grant Young served as fifth man and coach.
McPhee also served as head professional at both Kamloops and Rivershore Golf Clubs and also played golf on the CPGA tour, while Brian Eden has been manager of the Kamloops Curling Club for over a quarter-century.
