Report
Ireland returned to the European Curling Championships after a 4 year break (due to the lack of available Home Ice). In 2017 in Andorra, the men finished in second place in the Round-Robin Stage, winning 8 and losing only one match before losing the Gold Medal Game to Spain 7-5, and then the Silver Medal Game to France 6-5, who were both promoted. 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.
