PEI Tankard, Future Tankard start Friday in Charlottetown

The PEI Tankard provincial men’s curling championship is scheduled for the Charlottetown Curling Complex Jan. 29 to Feb. 2 2016. The winning team will advance to the Tim Hortons Brier, March 5-13, 2016 at TD Place in Ottawa Ontario.

Six teams, including the defending champion Adam Casey squad from the Silver Fox Curling and Yacht Club and the Charlottetown Curling Complex and are in the Tankard. Other entries include the Robert Campbell, Eddie MacKenzie and Jamie Newson rinks from Charlottetown, Tyler Harris from Charlottetown and Montague, and the Tyler Smith team from Crapaud and Montague. Opening draw is 2 pm Friday.

The PEI Future Tankard developmental event for male curlers under 21 is scheduled for the same time and venue, with two teams, skipped by brothers Devin and Mitchell Schut from the Cornwall Curling Club, signed up. First game is 7 pm Friday.

Here is the draw and schedule for both events. The Future Tankard play a three game series, while the Tankard will be a modified triple knockout, qualifying up to three teams for a two game championship round. If a team wins all three sections of the draw, they will be declared the winner without the championship round. A team winning two sections would play in both championship games, and would take the title if they win either game, while their opponent would have to win both.
