Competing in the sport of curling is Devin Leadbeater, Scott Madder, Tyler Yurchuk, Sandra Revet and Glen Skayman, along with coaches Jodee Webster, Gina Rank and Mission Staff Charles Tweed.

This is a premier national event that will welcome over 1200 athletes, coaches and mission staff from across the country to compete against one another in 8 sports in the hopes of qualifying for Team Canada and the chance to compete at the 2025 World Winter Games in Italy.

The Brandon athletes are actively looking for sponsorship and donations for our 5 Brandon so they may have this once in a lifetime experience.  The cost to send one of our Provincial Team athletes to Calgary is $2000.00, their GOAL is to raise $10,000.00 to help send these athletes on an amazing opportunity and memorable adventure.
