Junior Curling Championships a success in Stratford

The 2016 Canadian Junior Curling Championships are in the books.

Stratford played host to the nine-day tournament that wrapped up on Sunday. By most accounts the tournament and the city were well-received.

Organizer Rob Douglas says Curling Canada is interested in returning:

He says having everything together is a big attraction:

When it comes to Stratford’s hosting again Douglas says Curling Canada does like to move the tournament around the country. But the bidding for the next available tournament, which is 2018, opens up soon.
