The Ontario Curling Council (OCC) is the recognized Provincial Sport Organization for amateur curling by the Government of Ontario’s Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport. Our members are CurlON (Ontario Curling Association) and the Northern Ontario Curling Association (NOCA). The OCC is responsible for delivery of all Province-wide programs and competitions when events do not lead to a Curling Canada National Championship with representation from both CurlON and NOCA. The Ontario Curling Council is responsible for the Ontario Winter Games, ParaSport Winter Games and Canada Winter Games Events/Qualification Events. The Ontario Curling Council would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the competition that will ultimately determine the Ontario Winter Games Champions. Qualifiers for both four person games (single gender) and Mixed Doubles will be held across the province. One winner from each qualifying competition (Four Person and Mixed Doubles) from each of the six Qualifier locations will advance to the OWG Provincial Competition to be held in Orillia, February 27-March 1, 2020. Ontario Winter Games Event Location: Barnfield Point Recreation Centre 500 Atherley Road, Orillia, Ontario L3V 7Y1 Page 4 of 26 About the Ontario Winter Games The Ontario Games Program started in 1970 in Etobicoke as a showcase for amateur sport. It has now become Ontario’s largest multi-sport event, including both team and individual sports. Provincial level athletes from ages 12 to 18 qualify through a regional selection process conducted by the Provincial Sport Organizations (PSOs). The Games take place every two years and are awarded through a bidding process. They are supported by the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport in collaboration with host communities. For many young athletes, the Ontario Winter Games is the high point of their sporting career, while for others the Games are a stepping stone for the Canada Games, Pan Am Games or even the Olympics. Games at a Glance ● 3,500 participants ● 27 sports ● 4 days ● Athletes aged 12-18 years ● $5 million in estimated economic activity ● 700+ volunteers Games Ontario The Orillia 2020 Ontario Winter Games is supported by the Government of Ontario, through its Games Ontario program. This program delivers or supports multi-sport events, including the Ontario Winter and Summer Games for youth, the Ontario 55+ Summer and Winter Games and the Ontario Parasport Games.

Qualification Process for Ontario Winter Games The OCC will host six OPEN qualifiers for four person teams and six separate OPEN qualifiers for mixed doubles. Four person teams may enter any ONE of the six qualifiers, entry fees payable to the OCC will apply. Mixed doubles teams may enter any ONE of the six mixed doubles qualifiers. One winning team per gender from each of the qualifiers will advance to the Ontario Winter Games. Athletes may compete in only ONE discipline at the Ontario Winter Games. Therefore, Athletes who win the Men’s and Women’s provincial qualifier events are INELIGIBLE to play in the Mixed Doubles event. We do not want athletes who have already qualified for the OWGs potentially eliminating another eligible athlete from the competition. If an athlete wants to enter both the Four Person Discipline and the Mixed Doubles Discipline, the OCC will permit withdrawal from the Mixed Doubles Discipline should the athlete qualify for the Ontario Winter Games in the Four Person Discipline.
