City to host 2018 Provincial Mixed Curling Championships
Prince Albert will be at the centre of the provincial curling world in March as it plays host to the 2018 Provincial Mixed Curling Championships from March 21 to 25.
The announcement made Friday morning marks another bright spot for the local curling club, after recently securing the 2019 New Holland Canadian Junior Men’s and Women’s Curling Championships.
“Curling is trying all these different formats. One just happening on the weekend is the Olympic trials for the mixed doubles which is really gathering strength in Europe and starting to gather here,” Chair Bryan Rindal said during the announcement.
“We are hoping… the Olympics, and the introduction of the mixed doubles, will make sure that we get our entrants.”
