The 2008 Mens Champions (BC) and the 2007 Champions (ONT) were in the playoffs, both shooting for a 2nd Canadian Championship Title.

Lee Morrison had won 6 Saskatchewan Masters titles and in 2009 won her 1st Canadian Masters. Morrison was under the pressure of playing on her home ice. Team Alberta (Turner/Wagner/Toews-the 2007 Canadian Champions) were looking for a 2nd title but came up one rock short in the finals after going undefeated in RR play . Team Ontario ( Betty Bush -2006 Masters Runner-up) was searching for her 1st Canadian Championship title but lost the semis to Morrison.

CANADIAN MASTERS CURLING CHAMPIONSHIPS - CCA SANCTIONED IN 1999
The Masters Canadian Championship was sanctioned by the CCA delegates at the 1999 AGM.
Masters Curling Championships of Canada has grown to 20 plus teams each year. This Championship is guided by the Masters Championship Committee. (They meet annually at the CCA curling congress). Each year a host committee organizes the Canadian Championship and takes the responsibility for funding and sponsorships to help provide the annual costs of hosting the Canadian Masters Championship. The CCA Member Associations (Provincial Curling ) assist with some of the uniform, travel and lodging costs. In past instances the Provincial Curling Champions each have paid some or all of thier own expenses.
Initially, no actions were undertaken bt the CCA to implement the sanctioning actions detailed in the 1999 motion of business. A letter from the Masters Committee to the CCA (sent October, 2007) asked the CCA to start a step by step ramp implementation of the CCA motion of 1999. As a result of communications with the MCC and CCA thoughout 2007 and 2008, steps contained in the CCA motion are being put into place:
__________________________________________________________________
STEP ONE - Use of the CCA website (for Masters schedules, results ,links), IN PLACE - starting with the 2008 Championships.
STEP TWO -Utilization of the CCA Logo for the Masters Championships. IN PLACE - starting in 2008.
STEP THREE - Include Masters results in CCA publications like Extra End magazine, and the Seasons of Champions Fact Book. IN PLACE for 2008 and subsequent Publications
STEP FOUR - Live Scoring of the Masters Championships on the CCA website. Expected for the 2010 Championship in Saskatoon (Nutana ) . IN PLACE a hotlinks from the CCA for the 2008, 2009 champioships.
___________________________________________________________________
FINAL STEP - Will be a signed agreement between CCA and its Member Associations and the Masters Commitee to secure the same status as other Canadian Curling Association National Curling Championships (These Championships operate under the normal business, financial, practices and processes of the CCA )
The future of Canadian Masters Curling Championship requires the resources of the CCA, the Provincial Associations along with existing support groups . Sponsorship development will strengthen further as the full resources of the CCA and Member associations are applied to the Canadian Masters Championship Event.
