Ottawa will host the 2021 Everest Canadian Curling Club Championships, it was announced today by Curling Canada.
Canada’s most talented club curlers will compete at the Ottawa Hunt & Golf Club from Nov. 28-Dec. 4, 2021. The event includes 14 men’s and 14 women’s teams from each Member Association – 10 provinces, three territories and Northern Ontario – that will clash over an opportunity to be named Canada’s top grassroots-level team.
The 2020 edition event was initially scheduled at the Ottawa Hunt & Golf Club but cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Key highlights:
- The last edition of the Canadian Curling Club Championship took place in Leduc, Alberta, in December 2019. The Québec teams of Jasmin Gibeau and Isabelle Néron brought home the silver and bronze medals, respectively.
- The Everest Canadian Curling Club Championships are for recreational, club-level curlers who don’t have the time or resources to compete at the high-performance level; the event gives those curlers the exciting opportunity to represent their home province or territory on the national stage.
- This event marks the first occasion of the Canadian curling club championship partnering with Everest’s title sponsorship, a funeral planning and concierge service rolled into a life insurance plan. The 2020 Canadian Curling Club Championships were initially supposed to dawn the Everest title.
