The decision to re-open for play belongs to each curling rink's management team and decision makers. You must consult your local authorities for the guidelines that apply to you. Then you can choose to re-open based on those guidelines using the recommendations of Curling Canada and our provincial / territorial member associations to customize your own plan.
