With the current temporary COVID-19 measures in effect not allowing tournaments and the widespread community transmission in PEI, the Curl PEI Board of Directors, with the safety of the athletes, coaches, officials and volunteers in mind, has made the decision to cancel the 2022 PEI Scotties Tournament of Hearts.
The event was scheduled to be held at the Montague Curling Club January 5-9, 2022 and was to decide PEI’s representative for the Canadian Scotties Tournament of Hearts in Thunder Bay, ON.
As announced, the following process will be followed to determine the Curl PEI representative for the Canadian 2022 Scotties Tournament of Hearts:
- Curl PEI will invite the PEI team that is leading on the Canadian Team Ranking System (CTRS) as of December 26, 2021 to represent PEI at the national event.
- If that team is not available, with at least 50% of the original roster, Curl PEI will invite the next highest ranking team and so on.
An announcement of the Curl PEI representative will be made when the process is complete.
Curl PEI will continue to consult with health authorities and partners for the remaining events on the 2021-2022 calendar, and remains hopeful that its championship events can be played safely and responsibly.
