What’s Happening Around the Curling World?

This past weekend a major competition for men was held in Penticton in

the way of the NuFloors Penticton Classic.

There aren’t any foreign teams in the event

but it did feature five of Canada’s best we

will review. The Pan Continental Championship

started last Sunday in Lacombe, Alberta and

this is an important event because it qualifies

a number of teams for the 2025 Women’s

and Men’s World Championships….Canada is

represented by Brad Gushue and Rachel

Homan. Hot Rocks Topics. The Pan Continental

Championship started a few days ago and in a couple of

weeks the European Championship will start and in

both cases teams are being qualified for the 2025

World Men’s and Women’s Championship. In all

probability the Pan Continental will qualify (six – we will

explain) and the Europeans seven of the 13

teams. But at the WC Congress in September a

thought was put on the table…..is there a better way of

doing this?

So, today we have an email but

we have also gone to our FB Group where someone

asked about the Pan Continental being on television

and it got 109 comments. Curling Moments to
