The town of Morris, Manitoba, will host the province’s best young curlers at the Co-ops of Manitoba Junior Provincial Curling Championships from February 18 to February 22, 2026. This five-day event at the Morris MultiPlex will see more than 20 teams of men and women under age 21 compete for a provincial title and a chance to play in the national championships.
The Morris Curling Club is using its six-sheet facility and its high-performance training centre to host the large group of athletes. Organizers expect a busy week as teams who earned their spots through the Manitoba Junior Curling Tour arrive to compete on what is known for being high-quality, professional-grade ice.
Local businesses are preparing for a boost in customers, with hotels like the Morris Inn and restaurants such as George’s Burgers & Subs expecting more visitors than usual during the final week of February. According to CurlManitoba, these events often bring significant economic activity to rural towns through spending on food, fuel, and lodging.
The event relies on local help, and the club is looking for volunteers to assist with the daily operations of the tournament. Residents interested in watching the matches can purchase tickets at the door of the multi-purpose facility throughout the five-day competition.
