A father and son in Brockville, Ont., have started what they think is the first boomerang club in Canada — and they say the sport is slowly catching on with kids in the eastern Ontario city. Brian Curley and his 15-year-old son Aidan, neither of whom have Australian roots, were inspired to start the Brockville Boomerang Club after watching YouTuber Logan Broadbent, a champion boomerang thrower who has amassed thousands of subscribers showing off his skills. They started the boomerang club in May 2019. Right back atcha: Alexis Gagnon, 11, is one of the newest members of the Brockville Boomerang Club. "You have to make sure that you're throwing it in the right direction, you're throwing it properly, you're catching it properly ... and mostly it's just reading the boomerang," he said.
