(GSOC) Save the dates as we can now confirm the locations for five of the seven events on the 2015-16 Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling schedule that will see the series travel from coast to coast.
The season will kick off with the GSOC Tour Challenge in Paradise, N.L., with 30 men’s and 30 women’s teams in two tiers of action.
As previously announced, Truro, N.S., hosts the Masters while tickets are already on sale for the National in Oshawa, Ont.
Yorkton, Sask., held the Canadian Open this season and we’re bringing it back to the Gallagher Centre in December.
We then travel to Victoria, B.C., for the Elite 10, starring 10 of the top men’s teams in the unique match play format.
