StuSells_Toronto_Tankard
The Stu Sells Tankard, previously known as the Stu Sells Toronto Tankard, is an annual bonspiel, or curling tournament, that takes place at the Barrie Curling Club in Barrie, Ontario. The event is held in a round-robin format, however, was held in a triple-knockout format for many years. The tournament is sponsored by Stu Sells, a local real estate company, and is part of the "Stu Sells Series" or events, which includes the Stu Sells Oakville Tankard, the Stu Sells 1824 Halifax Classic, and a number of other junior and local tour events.[1] The men's event became a World Curling Tour event in 2011, but was later discontinued after the 2019 edition. The women's event became a World Curling Tour event in 2016, but was also discontinued in 2020. Both the men's and women's events are also part of the Ontario Curling Tour.
The event was held at the High Park Club in Toronto until 2022, excluding 2020, under the name Stu Sells Toronto Tankard. In 2023, it was moved to Barrie.[2]
The 2020 event was held at the KW Granite Club in Waterloo, Ontario,[3] as the High Park Club had yet to open for the season due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Toronto.
