In November 2023, the CurlESP Board of Directors revamped the selection process for our women’s and men’s teams who might be interested in competing in the Seagram’s Whisky Curling Club Regionals. Beginning with the 2024/2025 curling season, the new process is as follows:
-
- CurlESP will send up to TWO women’s and TWO men’s teams and cover the entry fee for each team.
-
- Any player, regardless of age or the league they play in or method of delivery (regular or stick), is eligible to enter and the team can be made up of any four curlers as long as all team members are: (1) affiliated members of CurlManitoba, (2) registered members of CurlESP for the 2024-25 season, (3) have paid at least ONE full CurlESP league fee registration for the 2024-25 season, and (4) have and will be playing regularly in a CurlESP league for the entire 2024-25 season.
-
- Any team interested in competing must submit their name and list of players at least four weeks prior to the regionals.
-
- If an expressed interest is received from more than TWO women’s and/or TWO men’s teams, CurlESP will hold a mini-bonspiel/play-off to determine which teams will qualify to represent CurlESP in the regional play-downs; the mini-bonspiel must be held no later than 2 weeks prior the date of the regional event.
Important Dates:
- Thursday, October 24, 2024: Deadline for CurlESP Teams to submit their list of players to the CurlESP Board.
- Saturday, November 2, 2024: CurlESP Mini-bonspiel / Play-off if required.
- 4:30 PM on Thursday, November 7, 2024: Deadline for individual teams to register online with CurlMB.
