Feb 8: Due to road conditions and forecast freezing rain, the 10 am opening draw is postponed to 2 pm with a further announcement later this morning.
The 2019 PEI Senior Curling Championships, with male and female divisions for curlers age 50 and over, are set for the Silver Fox curling club in Summerside, from February 8-11. Entries include the defending champion Bill Hope squad, from Cornwall and the host club, and last year’s finalist Philip Gorveatt team from the Charlottetown Curling Complex and the Montague Curling Rink, along with the defending women’s champion Shirley Berry foursome from the Cornwall Curling Club, and last year’s women’s finalist rink, skipped by Sharon Horne, out of the Western Community Curling Club in Alberton. Other entries include last year’s PEI Women’s Travelers Curling Club Championship team, skipped by Debbie Rhodenhizer, out of Cornwall.
The six men’s and an equal number of women’s teams will play modified triple knockout draws, with the winner of each section dropping down to compete in subsequent sections. If a team wins all three sections, they will be champion without a playoff. Otherwise, the section winners advance to a two-game championship round on Monday.
The event winners will advance to the 2019 Everest Canadian Senior Curling Championships, March 23-28 at the new Chilliwack Curling Centre in Chilliwack BC.

Modified Triple Knockout Draw Playoff Scenarios
1. One team wins all three qualifiers: Championship Round is not required.
2. One team wins two qualifiers. They play in both X and Z (and win the event if they win either game), the other winner plays in Y (and has to win both games).
3. Three separate winners: the team that played in the most qualifying games* plays in Z and the other winners play off in X and Y. If there is a tie in number of qualifying games played, then the team that qualified earliest goes to Z and the other two teams play off in X and Y.
*Qualifying games have yellow game number background on the schedule
