**Robyn Henry** (born July 6, 1994 as **Robyn Njegovan**) is a retired[2] [Canadian](/source/Canadians) [curler](/source/Curling) from [Winnipeg](/source/Winnipeg), [Manitoba](/source/Manitoba).[3]

## Career

### Juniors

Henry represented Manitoba at the [2011 Canada Winter Games](/source/Curling_at_the_2011_Canada_Winter_Games) alongside teammates [Beth Peterson](/source/Beth_Peterson), [Melissa Gordon](/source/Melissa_Gordon-Kurz) and [Breanne Yozenko](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Breanne_Yozenko&action=edit&redlink=1). There, they finished third in their pool with a 2–3 record, not enough to advance to the playoff round.[4] In 2015, the same team won the 2015 Manitoba Junior provincial championship. At the [2015 Canadian Junior Curling Championships](/source/2015_Canadian_Junior_Curling_Championships), they finished in fifth place with a 6–4 record.[5] The following season, Team Peterson began competing on the [World Curling Tour](/source/World_Curling_Tour) and finished runner-up at the 2015 [Mother Club Fall Curling Classic](/source/Mother_Club_Fall_Curling_Classic). As Peterson and Yozenko aged out of juniors, Henry and Gordon brought on [Abby Ackland](/source/Abby_Ackland) to skip their team at the Manitoba Junior championship with [Sara Oliver](/source/Sara_Oliver) at lead. Together, the new lineup won the junior provincial title and represented Manitoba at the [2016 Canadian Junior Curling Championships](/source/2016_Canadian_Junior_Curling_Championships).[6] At junior nationals, the Ackland rink led Manitoba to a 7–3 record through the round robin and championship pools.[7] They then lost to New Brunswick's [Justine Comeau](/source/Justine_Comeau) in a tiebreaker, eliminating them from contention.[8]

### Women's

Back with Team Peterson, Henry won her first tour event at the 2016 [Atkins Curling Supplies Classic](/source/Atkins_Curling_Supplies_Classic) where her team defeated [Darcy Robertson](/source/Darcy_Robertson) 7–6 in the final.[9] At the [2017 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts](/source/2017_Manitoba_Scotties_Tournament_of_Hearts), Team Peterson finished with a 4–3 record, not enough to qualify for the playoff round.[10] During the [2017–18 season](/source/2017%E2%80%9318_curling_season), Team Peterson won the Fort Garry Industries Bonspiel, beating out [Katie Chappellaz](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Katie_Chappellaz&action=edit&redlink=1) in the final. The team also reached the semifinals of the Atkins Curling Supplies Classic and the quarterfinals of the [MCT Championships](/source/MCT_Championships). Despite their successes on tour, Team Peterson was unable to advance to the [2018 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts](/source/2018_Manitoba_Scotties_Tournament_of_Hearts) after losing out in their regional qualifiers.[11]

After taking two seasons off, Henry returned for the [2020–21 season](/source/2020%E2%80%9321_curling_season) with her new team of skip Abby Ackland, second [Emilie Rafnson](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Emilie_Rafnson&action=edit&redlink=1), lead Sara Oliver and alternate [Brandi Forrest](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Brandi_Forrest&action=edit&redlink=1). The team played in two events during the abbreviated season, reaching the semifinals of both the Atkins Curling Supplies Classic and the MCT Cargill Curling Training Centre Fall Classic.[12] Second Emilie Rafnson left the team the next season and was replaced by [Kaitlyn Jones](/source/Kaitlyn_Jones) who took over as skip of the team.[13] Due to the [COVID-19 pandemic in Canada](/source/COVID-19_pandemic_in_Canada), the qualification process for the [2021 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials](/source/2021_Canadian_Olympic_Curling_Trials) had to be modified to qualify enough teams for the championship. In these modifications, [Curling Canada](/source/Curling_Canada) created the [2021 Canadian Curling Pre-Trials Direct-Entry Event](/source/2021_Canadian_Curling_Pre-Trials_Direct-Entry_Event), an event where eight teams would compete to try to earn one of two spots into the [2021 Canadian Olympic Curling Pre-Trials](/source/2021_Canadian_Olympic_Curling_Pre-Trials).[14] Team Jones qualified for the Pre-Trials Direct-Entry Event as the top seed. They lost both the B and C qualifier games to [Jessie Hunkin](/source/Jessie_Hunkin) and [Jill Brothers](/source/Jill_Brothers) respectively.[15] On tour, the team had an undefeated run at the SaskTour Women's Nutana up until the final where they lost to [Jessica Mitchell](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jessica_Mitchell&action=edit&redlink=1).[16] They also had deep runs at the Atkins Curling Supplies Classic and the SaskTour Women's Moose Jaw but lost in the semifinals at both events. At the [2022 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts](/source/2022_Manitoba_Scotties_Tournament_of_Hearts), Team Jones qualified for the playoffs after a 6–2 record through the round robin and championship pool. In the semifinal, they fell 8–6 to Kristy Watling.[17]

Henry was invited to be Team [Tracy Fleury](/source/Tracy_Fleury)'s alternate at the [2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts](/source/2022_Scotties_Tournament_of_Hearts) as the team qualified as one of the Wild Card entries.[18] The team included Henry's sister-in-law [Selena Njegovan](/source/Selena_Njegovan). Upon arrival into [Thunder Bay](/source/Thunder_Bay) for the event, the team announced that Tracy Fleury had tested positive for [COVID-19](/source/COVID-19) and would have to sit out much of the event.[19] Because of this, Selena stepped up to skip the team with Robyn coming in to play third. Without Fleury, the team had a dominant performance through their seven games, finishing with a 6–1 record.[20] Fleury then returned for the teams' final round robin game where they picked up another victory to close out the round robin first place in their pool.[21] Despite earning a bye from the elimination games, the team lost the seeding game and then the 3 vs. 4 page playoff game, eliminating them from the event in fourth place.[22]

Henry retired from competitive curling following the [2021–22 season](/source/2021%E2%80%9322_curling_season).[2]

### Mixed doubles

In 2025, Henry teamed up with [Rob Gordon](/source/Rob_Gordon_(curler)) to win the 2025 Manitoba provincial mixed doubles championship.[23] At the [2025 Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship](/source/2025_Canadian_Mixed_Doubles_Curling_Championship), the pair finished fifth in their pool with a 3–4 record.[24]

## Personal life

Henry works as a registered psychiatric nurse RPN at Health Sciences Centre. Her brother is fellow curler [Connor Njegovan](/source/Connor_Njegovan) and her sister-in-law is [Selena Njegovan](/source/Selena_Njegovan).[3]
