The Purge: Curling Edition
August 13th, 2026 by PotatoThe rules of curling come with an expiry date. I guess it’s to manage the cadence of rule changes, or maybe to force people to actually check for rules updates every few years, but whatever the reason, they expire. Specifically, they expire at the end of this month:

The word is that Curling Canada is going to fold in with the World Curling Federation and stop having a separate rule book, starting with the next iteration of the rules coming out for 2026/2027. That is expected to be released the week of September 7th, according to a post from CurlBC.
This means there’s going to be no rules for the first week of September, 2026!! For most players and clubs, that’s fine — our ice won’t even start going in until the end of September, and our season doesn’t start until after Thanksgiving in October. However, there is a summer league happening in Oakville, which I am a part of.
The Purge: Curling Edition is on! (or will be in a few weeks)
So, does anyone have a battery-powered floor polisher I can borrow for September 1st? :)
