Kelley Law rocked the curling world when she skipped Team Canada all the way to a gold medal in women's curling at the 2000 world championships.
Kelley grew up in Maple Ridge between the ages of nine and 19, and was a student at both Maple Ridge Elementary and Maple Ridge Secondary. She was just 11 years old when her parents introduced her to curling at the Golden Ears Winter Club. Her first games were just for fun, but her talent and her instinct for a good shot quickly drew her into the sport's competitive side. She won district junior titles in her teens before moving on to ladies play.
Joining with teammates Diane Nelson, Julie Skinner, and Georgina Wheatcroft, Kelley skipped Team BC to the Canadian title at the 2000 Scott Tournament of Hearts. A few months later, the foursome earned the title of best in the world by following their motto of giving all they've got on the ice—and having fun out there.
