Time flies and the next thing you know its curling season. The JSS’s very first U18 event of the season takes place at the Oakville Curing Club. This event runs concurrently with the U20 Royal Slam and the U15 Phoenix Slam August 30 – September 1, 2024
Our traditional home for this event is the KW Granite Club in Kitchener but this Sept they are undergoing some capital upgrades that will see us move this event temporarily to Oakville for the 2024/25 season.
This early season event is all about getting games and returning to the ice. The format will be based on the number of entries but a field size of 8 teams or greater will see a minimum 4 game round robin with at least one playoff game. We will be implementing a Championship and Consolation final for each of our U18 events this season. We will be in full compliance with CurlON’s TTRS Points system. All teams for the U18 Phoenix are guaranteed 5 games minimum.
All of the U18 Slam events will utilize an established protocol which will include 5 min pre-game practice, LSD for hammer, and full coach interactions. Prize allocation will be determine by field size and playoff format.
