For the first time in many years, female curlers will officially be back in action at the provincial circuit final in 2020. The top 4 women’s teams will receive invitations to participate in the event which will be divided into three separate events: women, men, and senior men. Historically, the circuit final event regrouped top teams soley based on their performance in Quebec provincial circuit events, however the eligibility criteria has been modified slightly for the women’s category to properly account for the current reality of women’s competitive curling. Therefore, all points accumulated at all recognized events (Quebec provincial circuit, World Curling Tour, other provincially sanctioned events, etc.) will be taken into consideration for the official rankings.
