Curling Canada has gone international to find a replacement for longtime high\u002Dperformance director Gerry Peckham.
Peckham, who spent over three decades with the organization, has been transitioning to retirement this season. He oversaw an Olympic/Paralympic program that excelled for many years but underperformed at top international events over the last two quadrennials.
Murdoch retired as a player in 2017 and moved into coaching. He helped establish British Curling’s National Curling Academy and has worked closely with Scotland’s top teams..Eve Muirhead won Olympic gold last year in Beijing and fellow Scot Bruce Mouat took men’s silver. Mouat and Jenn Dodds just missed the mixed doubles podium with a fourth-place finish.
Canada won gold in the Olympic debut of mixed doubles at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games but missed the podium in the team events.
