All media badges issued for the World Women’s Curling Championship are non-transferable. Failure to follow this rule will result in forfeiture of your media credential. MEDIA SEATING An event/media bench has been constructed at the home end. The bench offers wireless Internet, electrical outlets and TV’s, as does the media room, should you wish to file from there. MEDIA ROOM/LOUNGE The media room is located on the north side of the lower arena level concourse. The media room will be open for pre-event practices on Friday. Beginning Saturday until the conclusion of the event it will open 30 minutes before the first draw of the day and close roughly one hour after the last draw. The media room has electrical outlets, wireless Internet, a printer and television to assist in the production and distribution of media materials and media services. INTERVIEW REGULATIONS/PROCEDURES You will be required to fill out interview request forms, which will be available on the media bench and in the media room. Volunteers will be gathering the forms as the draw progresses and will hand them to requested players at the completion of their games. Players will be told they cannot leave the scrum area until they have fulfilled all requested interviews. All post-game media interviews during the round robin will be conducted in a scrum format at ice level in a designated space adjacent to the media bench. All players have been instructed to exit through this area on their way to the dressing rooms. Every effort will be made to escort players to the specified area as quickly as possible after each draw. For the final, arrangements may be made to offer a very brief scrum with the winner and/or loser, on or near the ice surface, prior to the closing ceremony. TRANSPORTATION Should you require courtesy transportation to and from the media hotel to CN Centre for each draw, please call 1-844-299- CURL (2875). You must have the appropriate media credential in order to utilize the VIP/Media transportation service. DRAW STATISTICS All scoring and statistical reports are produced and recorded by the World Curling Federation and available online only at https://worldcurling.org/events/wwcc2020/?page=results CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 5 WORLD CURLING FEDERATION PHOTOGRAPHY GUIDELINES CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 6 CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 7 CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 8 TV NON-RIGHTS HOLDERS (INTERNATIONAL MEDIA) CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 9 TV NON-RIGHTS HOLDERS (CANADIAN MEDIA) TSN is the sole Canadian TV rights-holder for the 2020 World Women’s Curling Championship, thus no cameras/portable video devices from any other media affiliation are allowed inside the boards during morning, afternoon and evening draws. However, in order to provide other stations and/or networks with an opportunity to get brief game/highlight footage, approved camera positions will be available at certain locations outside the boards around the perimeter or at various places on the concourse level or press box, provided your position at no time blocks the view of spectators nor presents a fire access hazard. Please ensure that your camera has no visible logo. If so, please cover it up. You are allowed to air two minutes of game footage daily, provided the game footage is not from a game being televised as the feature game by TSN, in which case you must use their highlights with the appropriate credit. The main media scrum takes place at ice level near the media bench. There will be an appropriate backdrop/signage noting the area. All players will pass by this area en route to their dressing rooms. TV cameras must allow the media scrum to first interview any requested players before arranging individual interviews. However, cameras may be part of any scrum. For TV non rights-holders, you are allowed to air as much footage from the scrums as you wish. When all games have been completed for any draw AND when TSN/World Curling TV has concluded its telecast and is off the air, you are allowed to do ‘stand-ups’ or interviews at ice level on the carpeted areas, near the scoreboards or even inside the boards, provided you are not disrupting the ice technicians as they prepare the surface for the next draw. For brief live hits, if TSN/World Curling TV is not on the air, you will be able to do stand-ups on the concourse, seating areas, etc., providing any lighting requirements have been pre-approved. When TSN/World Curling TV is on the air, NO live hits are allowed. Thank you. If there are any questions, please contact (on-site): Al Cameron Director, Communication and Media Relations Curling Canada Cell: 403-463-5500 CURLING CANADA • 2020 WORLD WOMEN’S CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP, PRESENTED BY NATURE’S BOUNTY VITAMINS • MEDIA GUIDE 10 FACT SHEET OFFICIAL NAME: World Women’s Curling Championship, presented by Nature’s Bounty Vitamins DATE/SITE: March 14 - March 22, 2020 - CN Centre, Prince George, B.C.

  • Memoria 2013-2014
    MEMORIA 2013-2014 CURLING Club Hielo Txuri-Berri Curling Temporada 13-14 Donostia, 20 de mayo de 2014 La sección de Curling del Club Hielo Txuri-Berri califica una vez más de excelente la temporada realizada por sus jugadores tanto a nivel nacional como internacional. Como logro más importante, cabe destacar que el Club Hielo Txuri-Berri ha disputado 3 de las 4 finales posibles de los pasados Campeonatos de España en sus diferentes modalidades (absoluto femenino, mixto y dobles mixtos), consiguiendo proclamarse campeón de España absoluto femenino por segunda vez en su historia. Eso significa que dicho equipo representará al equipo nacional en el próximo Campeonato de Europa Absoluto 2014 (grupo C). En la modalidad mixta, el equipo Txuri-Berri Cafés Aitona igualó el segundo puesto conseguido la temporada pasada. En la modalidad de dobles mixtos, se consiguieron un segundo y tercer puesto, donde el triunfo fue para la pareja del Iparpolo Sergio e Irantzu (ganadores en 6 ocasiones del título de Campeones de España). El tercer equipo Txuri-Berri finalizó en 6ª posición. En modalidad masculina, el C.H. Txuri-Berri no pudo revalidar su título de campeón de España y terminó en un meritorio 5º puesto, debido a una baja de última hora, lo que supuso tener que jugar el campeonato con solo 3 jugadores. A nivel Internacional, el mayor reto de la temporada fue la participación del equipo absoluto masculino en el Campeonato de Europa (grupoB) disputado en Stavanger (Noruega), como miembros de la selección nacional. El equipo masculino logró una meritoria 11ª posición final y el objetivo de la permanencia.
