A Convergence of Talent at the Heart of Curling Country
From February 17 to 21, 2026, the city of Regina, Saskatchewan, will become the epicenter of Canadian curling as it hosts the prestigious U SPORTS and Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) National Curling Championships. Held at the historic Caledonian Curling Club, this event will bring together 32 of the best men’s and women’s teams from universities and colleges across the nation.
This championship is more than just a competition; it is a vital platform for the development of Canada’s next generation of elite curlers. For a province like Saskatchewan, where curling is deeply woven into the cultural fabric, hosting this national event is a point of immense pride. The tournament provides a unique opportunity for student-athletes to balance high-level athletic competition with their academic pursuits, a core mission supported by Curling Canada.
The stakes are high, as the winners of the U SPORTS division will earn the honor of representing Canada at the 2027 FISU World University Games, continuing a tradition of launching collegiate athletes onto the international stage. The city of Regina, with its rich history of hosting major curling events like the Brier and World Championships, is poised to provide an unforgettable experience for both athletes and fans.
The Road to Glory and a Legacy of Champions
The championship is a showcase of both emerging talent and established university programs. The University of Regina Cougars, playing as the host team, will have the home-ice advantage. Their men’s program has a history of success, having won national titles in 2009 and most recently in 2024. The event also marks the CCAA Championship’s return to Saskatchewan for the first time in 41 years, adding a layer of historical significance.
Teams will be vying to dethrone the defending 2025 champions, including the dominant Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks in the U SPORTS category and the skilled squads from Mohawk College and PACWEST in the CCAA division. The Caledonian Curling Club, a venue steeped in curling lore, will provide the perfect setting for the intense strategy and precision that defines the sport.
As these young athletes slide, sweep, and shout their way toward a national title, they are not just competing for a medal; they are carrying on a proud Canadian tradition and shaping the future of the sport. The entire curling community will be watching as new champions are crowned in the heart of curling country.
