Curl BC is the provincial sport governing body responsible for the development, promotion and organization of curling in British Columbia, Canada.[1] Curl BC is also responsible for the championship system that declares provincial representation at Curling Canada events.
The organization has a membership of 25,000 curlers[2] spread over 81 clubs, which are organized into 11 regions.[3] Curl BC was formed in June 2004 from the amalgamation of the Pacific Coast Curling Association, the British Columbia Interior Curling Association and the British Columbia Ladies’ Curling Association.[4]
Curling clubs in the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality and Peace River Regional District are members of Curling Alberta, not Curl BC.
