Happy New Year, from Inside Curling. We start 2025 off with a special show!

Happy New Year and greetings

again everyone and welcome to this Special

Edition of Inside Curling.

Right now in Liverpool, Nova Scotia we

are getting close to the end of an event

that will determine Canada’s Mixed

Doubles representative at the 2025

World Mixed Doubles Championship in

Fredericton, NB This team will also

represent Canada at the Olympics in

2026 in Italy if Canada

qualifies and we will explain.

Yet, another curling team has made a

change and this time on the women’s

side of things as Team Chelsea Carey

announced a change in it’s lineup for the

balance of the year. This team was

already qualified for the

Scotties might that be impacted we

will explain. On our show we announced a few weeks

ago that the brushing wars were coming

into the forefront again when one

manufacturer announced they were

coming out with a new broom using a

foam that had previously been

determined to be not acceptable. Last

week, our sponsor Goldline announced it

is now producing a new broom that will

be known as the Pursuer with a similar

type of foam being used and apparently

Hard Line, the third big player in the

game is in the process of doing the same

thing what is happening here do

we have the start of another

Broomgate?
