Robert E. Hardy

A long history of senior management roles with the USCA has been in the backbone of Bob’s curling career dating back to 1967. As USCA president in 1986, Hardy, of Seattle, Wash., spearheaded the USCA’s application for membership in the United States Olympic Committee.

His career stretched internationally, as well, as he helped fledgling Russian curlers and served as a USCA representative to the World Curling Federation for 10 years, including key WCF management assignments.
