Kendra Lilly (born June 18, 1991) is a Canadian curler from Sudbury, Ontario. She is a three-time Northern Ontario junior champion skip. She is also the former skip of the Laurentian University women's curling team.

Career

Lilly won the 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 Northern Ontario Junior Curling Championships.[2] This qualified her for the Canadian Junior Curling Championships in each of those years. At the 2009 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, she threw fourth rocks for skip Vanessa Maloney and finished with a 6–6 record.[3] At the 2010 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, she skipped the rink of Kim Curtin, Jennifer Gates and Kaitlynd Burns to a 9–3 round robin record. The team then lost to British Columbia's Dailene Sivertson in the semi-final to finish third overall.[4] At the 2011 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, Lilly's team of Gates, Courtney Chenier and Curtin went 6–6 and missed the playoffs.[5] At the 2012 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, her team of Crystal Lillico, Chenier and Avery Thomas went 6–6 again, missing the playoffs.[6] Lilly was also the skip of the Laurentian University curling team.[7]

Following her junior career, Lilly formed a women's team with Chenier, Laura Pickering-Forget and Joanne Comé-Forget. Lilly went 4–5 with this team at her first provincial championship in 2013.[8]

Lilly served as the alternate for the Tracy Horgan rink at the 2013 Olympic Pre-Trials. The team narrowly missed the playoffs, losing the 'C' final qualifier, finishing with a 4–3 record.[9][10]

Lilly and her team qualified for playoffs at the 2014 Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, losing in the 3 vs. 4 page playoff game.[11]

In 2014, Lilly joined the World Curling Tour for her first season with new teammates Sarah Potts, Oye-Sem Won Briand and Tirzah Keffer. This team played in the inaugural Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2015, where she lost to Horgan in the final.[12]

In 2015, Lilly joined the Krista McCarville rink as third, and won a silver medal at the 2016 Scotties Tournament of Hearts for Northern Ontario.[13] They also played in the 2017 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials, finishing 4–4.[14]

In 2018, Lilly substituted at third for Team Rocque (skipped by Laura Crocker) at the Players' Championship.[15] The team lost 8–3 in a tiebreaker to Satsuki Fujisawa.[16]

Team McCarville won the 2019 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, sending the team once again to represent Northern Ontario at the Scotties. At the 2019 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the rink had a 8–3 record, putting her team in fourth place in the round robin, earning them a spot in the playoffs.[17] In the 3 vs. 4 game, team McCarville lost to Team Ontario's Rachel Homan rink.[18] The team won the championship again the following year at the 2020 Northern Ontario Scotties Tournament of Hearts, which qualified them for the 2020 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Team McCarville lost the 3 vs. 4 game to Ontario and Homan for the second year in a row.[19]

The 2021 Northern Ontario provincial playdowns were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario. As the 2020 provincial champions, Lilly, with McCarville's team, was given an automatic invitation to represent Northern Ontario at the 2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Calgary. However, the team declined the invitation, citing family and work priorities.[20]

Personal life

Lilly is employed an operations manager at DKB Financial Services Group Inc.[21] Her brother is curler Evan Lilly.[22]
