The final got underway at 2 pm in the Junior Women’s section of the Canada Games Trials, at the Charlottetown Curling Club. The Amanda MacLean rink from the Maple Leaf club in O’Leary finished double round robin play in first place, with a 5-1 win-loss record, and advanced to the final against the second place Veronica Smith rink from Cornwall, who ended round robin play at 4-2. Jenny MacLean of Summerside finished at 2-4, while Leah Deveau from Montague ended play at 1-4. In the final round robin draw on Sunday morning, Smith doubled Jenny McLean 6-3, and Amanda MacLean beat Deveau 7-4.

Two tiebreaker rounds are needed before the finals in the Junior Men’s section, with all four teams finishing the double round robin with identical 3-3 win-loss records. Draw to the button results were used to rank the teams coming out of the round robin, with Jeff Taylor of Cornwall awarded first place, followed by his clubmate Tyler Smith at second. Third went to Matthew MacLean of O’Leary, with Tony Nabuurs of Montague ranked fourth.

As PEI Curling Association rules dictate that a team cannot be eliminated from the championship round solely on round robin results, a tiebreaker round is necessary. First and second-ranked teams Taylor and Smith will play off at 2 pm, as will third and fourth-ranked teams MacLean and Nabuurs. The winner of the 1 vs 2 game will advance directly to the 1:30 pm Monday final, with the loser of the 3 vs 4 game eliminated from further play, and the winner facing the loser of the 1 vs 2 game Monday at 9 am. The winner of that game will face the 1 vs 2 winner in the 1:30 pm Monday final.

The winners of the Trials will advance to the Canada Games, February 11-27, 2011 in Halifax, at the Mayflower Curling Club.
