Report

Ireland returned to the European Curling Championships after a 4 year break (due to the lack of available Home Ice).

Ireland finished with Bronze.

In 2018 in Cophenhagen, Denmark, Ireland again won Bronze, after finishing in 3rd in the Round-Robin before winning the Bronze Medal Game against Bulgaria 12-4, before losing the Silver Medal Game 6-5 to Belarus. Ireland finished with Bronze for the second year running.
