2023 Bogside Cup – Day 1 in the Books

There’s something in the water, or maybe the taps at the 2nd Bogside Cup in Montague as defending Christina Black continued on last years success going 2-0 Friday. Black and her team of Jenn Baxter, Karlee Everist and Shelley Barker needed 8 ends to top Island rink Lauren Ferguson 7-5 before topping Nicole Arsenault-Bishop in their second draw of the day. Black and her team have yet to taste defeat in Montague, as they went undefeated last year on their way to the title.

Former PEI Scotties player Marie Christianson and her rink from Halifax also sit atop Pool A with a 2-0 record after wins over Sophie Blades and Jenny White, both from PEI. Sophie Blades and Lauren Ferguson both sit at 1-1 after day 1.

In Pool B, Island rink Jane DiCarlo, Tammy Dewar and Laurie St. Georges are all 2-0 after draw 1. DiCarlo was awarded a 1-0 win in their first draw after Team Traxler from Alaska, USA had flight issues and could not make their opening draw. In their 2nd draw of the day, DiCarlo faced a heavy mountain to climb being down 5-0 after 3 ends to Jessica Daigle from Halifax. However, DiCarlo and her rink of Veronica & Sabrina Smith and Whitney Jenkins slowly clawed back to tie the game in the 7th before stealing 2 points and the win in the 8th.

Tanya Hilliard used a big steal of 4 in the 4th end to get by PEI team Amanda Power and followed up with their 2nd win of the day over Montague based rink, Sydney Carver. Laurie St. Georges of Quebec got by Carver 9-3 and went the distance against Power for their second win of the day to sit on top of Pool B at 2-0 with DiCarlo and Hilliard.

An interesting story at this year’s spiel is Team Traxler from Alaska, USA competing. The team is currently chasing just a couple CTRS points to qualify for the USA National Championships. This is the final week to accumulate CTRS points for the USA National Curling Championship so there might be just a little added pressure for this Alaska based team who traveled 7000 KM to attend the Bogside Cup.

Action continues today with draws at 9:00, 12:30, 4:00 and 7:30 at the Montague Curling Club. Scores and results will be updated on CurlingZone. Admission is free so come down and watch some of the best Curlers in Atlantic Canada, Quebec and America battle it out for the $10,000 purse.

Thunder Bay named to host 2025 Scotties Tournament of Hearts

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, and try again — and Thunder Bay, Ont., will have that opportunity in 2025, it was announced today by Curling Canada.

After two previous pandemic-affected attempts to hold a full-scale championship, Thunder Bay will get its long-waited opportunity to host the Scotties Tournament of Hearts with fans in attendance at the venerable Fort William Gardens.

The 2025 Scotties, which will declare a the Canadian women’s curling champion, will be played Feb. 14-23.

“I can’t say enough about the support and dedication of the City of Thunder Bay and the Northern Ontario curling community, because there was never a question in their minds about making this happen,” said Danny Lamoureux, interim Chief Executive Officer of Curling Canada. “I know how deeply it affected them to have the events affected like they were in the pandemic, and I know they will pull out all the stops to make the 2025 Scotties a massive success.”

Thunder Bay was initially awarded the 2021 Scotties, but that event was shifted to the Calgary bubble in exchange for the right to host the 2022 Scotties.

But early in 2022, the sudden surge in cases due to the Omicron variant forced the event to be played with no fans in the building until the closing weekend when a few hundred volunteers, junior curlers and family members were admitted in to watch Team Canada, skipped by Kerri Einarson, win its third consecutive title by defeating Thunder Bay’s Team Krista McCarville in the gold-medal game.

“The City of Thunder is pleased Curling Canada has shown confidence in our local curling community to host this major national championship again in February 2025; this time with fans in the stands and with the anticipation of sold-out draws at the historic Fort William Gardens”, said Thunder Bay Mayor Ken Boshcoff. “We have a proud history hosting championship events and feel privileged Thunder Bay’s curling community and local businesses will get another chance to show what are city can offer for the thousand of visitors expected to travel here over the 10 days of this major event.”

It will be the 44th edition of the Scotties Tournament of Hearts with title sponsorship by Kruger Products — the longest-standing sponsorship of women’s sports in Canada. 

“Kruger Products is proud to be the longest-standing sponsor of women’s sports in Canada for over four decades!” said Susan Irving, Chief Marketing Officer at Kruger Products. “We are thrilled to be back in Thunder Bay, and we look forward to cheering on the country’s top curlers as they compete for the title of Team Canada. As the makers Canadian leading brands, Scotties facial tissue, Cashmere and Purex bathroom tissue, and SpongeTowels paper towels, we cherish the ability to continue our sponsorship for such an important event and to support Canadian women’s curling for the 44th year.”

There will be an abundance of prizes and opportunities that will go to the winning team in Thunder Bay.

The 2025 Scotties champion will go on to represent Canada at the 2025 World Women’s Championship (host city, dates, to be announced by the World Curling Federation at a later date).

With a top-six finish at the 2025 world championship, the 2025 Scotties winner also will qualify for the 2025 Canadian Curling Trials, where Canada’s four-player teams for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy will be decided.

As well, the 2025 Scotties winner will return in 2026 as the defending champion Team Canada.

The first entry into the 2025 Scotties will be decided on Feb. 25 in Calgary, as the 2024 Scotties Tournament of Hearts winner is decided that day, and will play as Team Canada in Thunder Bay.

2024 Everest Canadian Senior Curling Championships coming to Moncton, NB

Moncton, N.B., will host Canada’s best men’s and women’s 50-and-over curling teams for the first time next year, it was announced today by Curling Canada.
 
Curl Moncton will be home to the 2024 Everest Funeral Concierge Canadian Curling Senior Championships from Dec. 2-7, 2024.
 
“Moncton is home to some remarkable moments in curling’s history. The community and host committee always create an exciting environment for our national championships to thrive. This will mark the first time the Everest Canadian Seniors are in Moncton, and we can’t wait to see what the host committee has in store for the athletes and fans,” said Curling Canada interim CEO Danny Lamoureux.
 
While it is Moncton’s first time hosting the Everest Canadian Seniors, the city has proven experience hosting premier national and international curling events.
 
Curl Moncton hosted the inaugural Canadian Under-18 Curling Championships in 2017 and the Canadian Junior Curling Championships in 2000.
 
Curling Canada’s partnership with Everest – a funeral planning and concierge service rolled into a life insurance plan – as the title sponsor of the Canadian senior championships dates back to 2015.
 
“2024 marks Everest Funeral Concierge’s 10th consecutive year sponsoring the Canadian Senior Curling Championships,” said Mark Duffey, Everest’s Chief Executive Officer. “It’s an amazing milestone for this incredible sport and for our ongoing partnership with Curling Canada. Everest is committed to supporting lives well played and curling represents some of the best ones in the country. We love the curling community and we can’t wait for this year’s competition.”
 
“10 years of supporting curlers and the curling community is incredible,” said renowned Canadian curler and newly announced Canada’s Sports Hall of Famer Randy Ferbey. “My fellow  Everest Curling Executive Committee members, Jennifer Jones and Cheryl Bernard, and I are all excited to promote the sport we love at the Everest Canadian Senior Curling Championships in Moncton, New Brunswick in December 2024!”
 
“Moncton has a long history as a curling city and we can’t wait to host the 2024 Everest Canadian Senior Championships!” said Moncton Mayor Dawn Arnold. “Our region has developed an impressive reputation for successfully holding local, national, and international sporting events and we look forward to ensuring this event’s athletes and visitors have the same outstanding experience people have come to expect from us. We also appreciate what this will mean for local curlers, who will be inspired and motivated by seeing these top-ranking teams play in our community.”
 
In addition to winning a coveted Canadian championship, the winning men’s and women’s teams in Moncton will represent Canada at the 2024 World Senior Curling Championships (location, date TBA by the World Curling Federation).

Membership Fees for the 2023-2024 Season

Curl PEI has been working to increase participation in the sport, create more opportunities for training and development and help Island clubs be healthy and active.  One source of revenue is the Curl PEI individual membership fee which includes personal accident insurance for all member curlers at the member clubs.  This coverage is there to help member curlers in case of any accident or injury that may happen as a result of participating in curling.

The 2023-2024 curling season will see an increase of $3 in the Curl PEI fee, bringing the fee to $18 per member curler.  Curlers will pay this annual fee as part of their normal club registration fees.

By paying this annual fee, curlers play a fundamental part in securing the future of the sport In Prince Edward Island.  Curl PEI works to keep the membership fee as low as possible with this being the first increase since the individual fee was implemented. 

For further information about the increase or the Curl PEI fee please reach out to the Curl PEI office at [email protected] or 902-368-4208.
