The 2018 Scotties Tournament of Hearts runs from Jan. 27-Feb. 4 in Penticton, British Columbia.

Last year’s runner-up, Team Michelle Englot of Winnipeg, have already qualified after Rachel Homan’s Ottawa rink – the 2017 Scotties champs – won the Roar of the Rings Olympic trials in early December. Their Olympic schedule conflicts with nationals so Englot will represent Canada at this year’s Scotties.

The remaining teams were determined with the provincial and territorial playdowns in January.

This year’s process is a little different as failure to win your playdown doesn’t necessarily mean you’re finished. The top two highest-ranked teams on the Canadian Team Ranking System who don’t qualify by winning their province or territory will compete in a Wild Card game on the night before the start of the Canadian championship. Winner gets the last spot in the tournament.
