Team Bio

Brad Jacobs and his cousins E.J. Harnden and Ryan Harnden have curled together since they were kids and joined forces on the tour circuit for the 2008-09 season.

Ryan Fry entered the fray at third in 2012 and the team clicked together immediately. They won the 2013 Brier and captured a silver medal for Canada at the world championship.

After qualifying via the pre-trials, Team Jacobs rolled right through the 2013 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials posting an undefeated record to represent Canada at the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia. After starting the Olympic tournament 1-2, Team Jacobs didn’t lose another game en route to the gold medal.

Jacobs was a finalist at three Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling events before winning his first major at the 2015 Players’ Championship and has since added three more titles in the series including the 2016 National on home ice in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.

Marc Kennedy first made noise on tour with skip John Morris, third Kevin Koe and lead Paul Moffatt winning the 2004 Players’ Championship and finishing third at the 2005 Canadian Olympic curling trials. Kennedy and Morris, along with Ben Hebert, linked up with Kevin Martin in 2006 and formed one of the greatest teams of all-time winning numerous Grand Slams, two Briers, one world championship and Olympic gold at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games.

After Martin retired, Kennedy reunited with Koe (who had since moved on to skip) and a new super team was formed winning Brier and world titles in 2016 and representing Canada at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Games.

Kennedy stepped back for the 2018-19 season although he made a super spare appearance at third on Team Jacobs at the Canada Cup and won the title. With Fry moving on after the year, Team Jacobs added Kennedy to the fold full-time.
