Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant continued their perfect run at the Canadian mixed doubles curling trials with two wins, securing a playoff spot. The duo aims to represent Canada at the 2026 Olympics.
Jocelyn Peterman and Brett Gallant remained undefeated at the Canadian mixed doubles curling trials with two victories Wednesday. The husband-and-wife duo from Calgary secured a playoff berth at 6-0 atop Pool B with one preliminary-round game left. “I think at the start of the week you really kind of want to be in that game to potentially get into the 1-2 game,” said Gallant . “So we’re where we want to be. I think the good news is we’re playing well too.
We feel more comfortable with the ice and how we’re throwing it as the week’s gone along, and that’s the important thing.” The trials winner could represent Canada in the 2026 Olympic Games if the duo also finishes high enough at the 2025 world championship to qualify their country for Italy. The Olympic field will include the top eight ranked countries in the world, or the top seven plus host Italy if the Italians aren’t in the top eight. Canada currently ranks fifth. The 16-team trials field was split into two pools. The top three teams in each pool advance to the playoff round starting Thursday evening. The final is Saturday at Queens Place Emera Centre. Peterman and Gallant, who were silver medallists at the 2019 world championship, defeated the father-daughter combo of Jim and Jaelyn Cotter 8-1 before downing Tyrel Griffith and Jennifer Armstrong 5-2 on Wednesday. Peterman and Gallant had one pool game remaining Thursday against 2024 Canadian champions Colton and Kadriana Lott (4-2). The Lotts were 8-6 winners Wednesday afternoon over Lisa Weagle and John Epping, who were also 4-2 in Pool B. Rachel Homan and Brendan Bottcher dropped their first game in Pool A on Wednesday when they fell 7-6 to Brittany Tran and Rylan Kleiter. Homan and Bottcher got back in the win column with an 8-3 victory over Nancy Martin and Steve Laycock (1-5), while Tran and Kleiter won 8-6 against Robert Desjardins and Anne-Sophie Gionest (1-5)
