PEI Mixed Doubles Curling Championship going ahead Friday at the Silver Fox

The PEI Mixed Doubles Curling Championship got underway with one draw on Thursday evening at the Silver Fox Curling Club in Summerside, with 17 teams, from the Charlottetown, Cornwall, Crapaud, and Silver Fox curling clubs, taking part. The defending champions, Ryan Abraham and Rachel O’Connor from Cornwall, are not back this year, but last year’s finalist team of Jamie Newson and Miranda Ellis from the host club are in this year’s event.

Curl PEI’s inclement weather policy states that, once an event gets underway, it will continue as scheduled, provided the necessary personnel (such as club staff and head event umpire) can safely get to the host club. The event will proceed as scheduled on Friday. If your team is not able to make it to a game please call Amy Duncan at 902-213-4177.

In opening draw play, Robbie Doherty and Amanda Power from Charlottetown beat Cornwall’s Lauren Ferguson and Mitchell Schut duo 9-3, Crapaud’s Nick Blanchard and Stephanie Schnare scored a five-ender in an 11-4 win over Dario Zannier and Liz Maynard from the Silver Fox, Mallory and Brock Rochford stole the extra end in a 6-5 win over Silver Fox clubmates Carl Gawenus and Sandra Walsh, and Tyler MacKenzie and Aleya Quilty from Charlottetown beat Alan Inman and Terri Wood from Crapaud 7-4. Play continues on Friday with draws at 9:30 am, and 12:45, 4, and 7:15 pm Friday. 

Teams are playing a modified triple knockout round, advancing teams to three qualifying matches for the two-game championship round. With the modified format, winning teams also drop down to compete in the next section. If a team wins all three sections, the championship round will not be played.

Live, end-by-end results will be available at PEICurling.com/scoreboard

The winning duo will advance to the 2020 Canad Inns Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship, March 17-22 at Stride Place in Portage La Prairie Manitoba.

Explanation for Championship Round (Games A and B):

1. If one team wins all three qualifying games*: Championship Round is not required.

2. If one team wins two qualifying games*:
They play in both A and B (and win the event if they win either game).
The other section winner plays in A and has to win to advance to B.

3. If there are three separate winners: the team that played in the most qualifying games* advances to B, and the other winners play off in A.
If there is a tie in the number of qualifying games* played, then the team that qualified earliest goes to B and the other two teams play off in A.

*Qualifying games are in yellow on the schedule
