2025 Carosella Invitational Bonspiel 

Invitational Bonspiel for Ladies. A USWCA Circuit Event.

22nd Annual Carosella Bonspiel is Friday, November 7th to Sunday, November 9th, 2025.

Open to female curlers ages 21 and up. All meals are included! Join us for raffles, costumes, and FUN- all for a great, REASONABLE low rink fee. Canadian teams, please pay online OR in cash upon arrival. This bonspiel was created as a way for 5 & Under ladies' teams to practice playing in a competitive format against more experienced teams before playing in the Women's Challenge.

USWCA Circuit members can earn points here with wins! You do not need to be a Circuit member to enter this bonspiel.

Registration is open! Early bird discount of $40 per team if you sign up by September 6th.

When ranking preferred draw times, please note that the number of Friday draws will depend on the total number of entries. So far, we have never needed more than 3 draws on Friday, but we like to dream big. We will do our best to accommodate your first draw choice whenever possible.
