Pan Continental Curling Championships
The Pan Continental Curling Championships are an annual curling tournament, held every year in late October or early November. The event is used to qualify teams from the America and Pacific-Asia zones for the World Curling Championships, with the top five teams from the A division earning qualification.[1] The championship was created to combine the Pacific-Asia Curling Championships and the Americas Challenge into one event, and create a stronger continental competition to mirror the established European Curling Championships.[2]
