Congratulations Team Calgary, Team Alberta, now Team Canada ! Well done !
10-0 Harold Breckenridge, Don Hier, J.R. McDonald, Gord Dewar - Calgary, Inglewood CC
Team Breckenridge goes into the record books as the first Alberta team to win the Canadian Masters Championship(M).This powerful Team from the Inglewood CC in Calgary Alberta sports a undefeated record at the 2013 Masters Championship. That record goes really well with the Gold Medals, along with getting thier names engraved on the Masters Champions Shield of Honour. At least two members of team Breckenridge played well in the Soo Brier when Ed Werenich won ( 1990) so Harold,Jimmy MacD and company now have many more special memories about Canadian Championship Curling in Northern Ontario,especially about the Port Arthur Curling Club In Thunder Bay ! Ontario was not going to take the Canadian Championship away from team Alberta this time as Team Alberta defeated Team Ontario in both the RR and the Championship game in 2013 !
Canadian Championship curling - Where dreams and hopes can be fulfilled !
We wish team Breckenridge best of luck in 2014. A repeat the win on home turf in 2014 would be sweet,as The Masters Canadians are in Coaldale Alberta in 2014 ! See you there !

| Canadian Masters Curling Championship |
The Masters Canadian Championship was sanctioned by the CCA delegates at the 1999 AGM.
Masters Curling Championships of Canada has grown to 25 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 assist with some of the uniform, travel and lodging costs.
___________________________________________________________
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. The Masters is now a part of the annual CCA Congress process.
Masters Curlers thank the efforts of The Canadian Masters Committee Members and the Championship event volunteers , who alongside the event sponsors make this event a reality each season !
Masters Curling -Since 1987 ! - Across Canada from year 2000 to present.

Masters curlers from 2007 to 2011 number over 2050 teams who have entered Masters playdowns.That is over 8200 curlers who have said YES to MASTERS CURLING CHAMPIONSHIPS. A much bigger number of participants exists if you roll back and add in the teams and players from 1986 through 2006 !
Beyond the Championship playdowns , it is thought that 60 + curlers form the backbone of most/many curling clubs in Canada.
