For Immediate Release Olds to Host 2022 Humpty’s

December 3, 2020 - The Pinty’s Grand Slam of will host the 2022 Humpty’s Champions Cup in Olds, Alta.

On Thursday, December 3, announced a partnership with Curling Canada to explore the option to host both the Players’ Championship and Champions Cup Grand Slam events within a hub city at WinSport’s Canada Olympic Park in in 2021. This approach gives qualified elite curlers the opportunity to continue their season within a safe and secure environment.

Olds was scheduled to hold the season-ending Champion’s Cup event in 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event was postponed to 2021 and now Olds is re-scheduled to host in 2022 — featuring 12 men’s teams and 12 women’s teams who have won high-profile titles.

Pending all updated contractual agreements, the 2022 Humpty’s Champions Cup will take place May 4- 8, 2022 at the Olds Sportsplex.

There are questions around ticket purchase and refunds following the cancellation of Humpty’s Champions Cup in Olds. With the postponement until 2022, the Host Committee has decided to automatically refund all tickets. Refunds will start within the next few weeks and will automatically be returned on the credit card used to purchase the tickets. We ask for your patience with this process. If you have updates or questions after January 4, please email [email protected].

The Host Committee will be in touch with all sponsors to discuss options moving forward.

Sincerely,

2022 Humpty’s Champions Cup Organizing Committee [email protected]
