Amanda Gates (born March 26, 1986 in Sudbury, Ontario) is a Canadian curler. Gates currently plays for Team Enge but used to play with Team Tracy Fleury (née Horgan). In 2015, Team Horgan became the first women's team in the history of women's curling to represent Northern Ontario at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts.[1] In Gates' first appearance at the Scotties (2012 in Red Deer, Alberta), she won the Marj Mitchell Sportsmanship Award. Team Fleury currently curls out of the Idylwylde Golf and Country Club in Sudbury, Ontario.

Curling career

Bantams and Juniors 2002- 2007

Gates began her bantam curling career representing Northern Ontario at the 2002 Ontario Winter Games in Guelph, Ontario. Gates went to play lead for the Team Horgan rink, who went on to represent Northern Ontario at the 2005, 2006 and 2007 Canadian Junior Curling Championships. Their best finish was a tie for third place in 2006.[2]

Gates skipped a high school team to a city championship in 2004.[3]

Gates also joined the Laurentian University Varsity curling team in 2009 where Laurentian took a bronze medal at University Nationals in Montreal, Quebec.[4]

Women's 2008 to 2018

As a member of Team Horgan, continuing to play in the lead position, Gates competed in the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 Ontario Scotties before breaking through in 2012 and defeating Rachel Homan to represent Ontario at the 2012 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Red Deer, Alberta. At this first appearance, they finished with a 4-7 record.[5] At this event, Gates won the Marj Mitchell Sportsmenship award.[6] During the 2012-13 season, although Team Horgan was unsuccessful at the Ontario Scotties, they did win the AMJ Campbell Shorty Jenkins Classic.[7] Due to their success in the previous season, they secured a berth at the 2013 Road to the Roar Olympic pre-trials, where they lost to Val Sweeting in the C final.[8] Shortly after the pre-trials, Team Horgan went undefeated at the Northern Ontario Scotties and advance to the 2014 Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts where they failed to make play offs.

At the end of December 2013, Team Horgan was selected to represent Canada at the Yichun International Ladies Cup in Yichun, Heilongjiang, China. They went 6 and 1 in the round robin, defeating Wang Bingyu in the semis and then defeating Jian Yilun in the final to win the championship.[9]

The 2014-15 season proved very successful for Team Horgan. The team finished first at both the 2014 DeKalb Superspiel[10] and the Curl Mesabi Classic.[11]

At the 2015 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Team Horgan became the first team to have a chance to represent Northern Ontario at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Moose Jaw, Alberta.[12] They went undefeated in the provincials and won a spot in the first ever relegation round. They defeated Kerry Galusha's Northwest Territories rink in the relegation final to secure a spot in the main event. During the 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Team Horgan entered the final draw of the round robin with a record of 6-4, tied with Team Homan whom they faced in this final draw. Fleury was not successful and finished 5th after round robin play, just out of play-offs.

With the addition of Crystal Webster, to form a five-person team, Gates continued to play with the now renamed team, Team Fleury, for the 2015-16 season. As a result of the teams finish after the 2014-15 season, Team Fleury secured a spot at the 2015 Canada Cup of Curling in Grande Prairie, Alberta where they finished with a record of 1-5.[13] On the slam tour, Team Fleury competed in the 2015 GSOC Tour Challenge Slam where they made it to semi-finals; The Masters Slam, where they did not qualify, 2015 The National where they made it to the final against Rachel Homan and the 2015 Canadian Open of Curling Slam where they qualified and finished 5th.

They were not successful at the 2016 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Timmins, Ontario, losing the final to Krista McCarville's Thunder Bay rink. The teams success this season left them in seventh spot in the Canadian Team Ranking System.[14]

The next season, the team failed again to win the Northern Ontario Scotties, losing once again to McCarville at the 2017 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts. On the World Curling Tour, the team made it to the quarterfinals in three Grand Slam events. They won one tour event, The Sunova Spiel at East St. Paul.

The team qualified for the 2017 Canadian Olympic Curling Pre-trials, but finished last in their group. The team finally won another provincial championship at the 2018 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts. The team represented Northern Ontario at the 2018 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, where they made the playoffs, but lost in the 3 vs. 4 game to Nova Scotia. Later that season, Gates teamed up with Thunder Bay's Trevor Bonot to win the Northern Ontario Mixed Doubles championship. Following the 2017-18 season, the Fleury team will break-up.[15]
