#BetweenTheSheets: Punching Final Tickets to Beijing

Plus #Trials2021 Parting Rocks


The rocks keep spinning as we get closer to the end of 2021.

Olympic trials. Continental championships. Grand slam of curling events. And now the FINAL chance at Olympic qualification.

If we thought we saw stress on the ice over the past few weeks, imagine what we will see in Leeuwarden, Netherlands over the next few weeks.

For those athletes representing their nation in Leeuwarden, this is it. This is the last chance to earn your spot in the 2022 Winter Olympics field in Beijing, China.

14 mixed doubles teams. 9 men's teams. 9 women's teams.

And only 2 mixed doubles Olympic spots. Only 3 men's and women's Olympic spots.

Happy Holidays indeed!
