2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts

The 2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Canada's national women's curling championship, was held from February 19 to 28 at the Markin MacPhail Centre at Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, Alberta. The winning Kerri Einarson team represented Canada at the 2021 World Women's Curling Championship. The world championship was supposed to be held at the Curlinghalle Schaffhausen[2] in Schaffhausen, Switzerland;[3] however, the event was cancelled and rescheduled to the "Calgary bubble" of the Markin MacPhail Centre.[4]

The event was originally scheduled to be held in Thunder Bay, Ontario.[5] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, it was announced that most Curling Canada championships still being held in the 2020–21 curling season would be moved to a centralized "bubble" (similar to that of the NHL as in Edmonton) at Canada Olympic Park. All events were held behind closed doors with no spectators permitted.[6] In addition, due to COVID-19 restrictions and logistics, most provincial playdowns were cancelled, with teams being selected by their respective member associations.

Wild card selection edit

In previous years, a wild card game was played between the top two teams on the Canadian Team Ranking System standings who did not win their provincial championship; the winner of this game was usually granted the final spot in the tournament. However, with many provinces cancelling their provincial championships due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, thus not allowing many teams to compete for a chance to play at the Scotties, Curling Canada opted to include three wild card teams instead of the usual one. These teams directly qualified and did not participate in a play-in game.[20]

For selection, teams must have 3 of 4 returning players from the previous season.
