Related, Curling Alberta is pleased to announce the policies governing its competitions for the 2019- 20 season have been published. Please note that there are a number of notable changes in addition to those posted during the summer. The implemented changes are aimed to increase participation, highlight developmental opportunities, and promote fairness.
