2017 Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts


The 2017 Viterra Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the provincial women's curling championship of Saskatchewan was held January 24 to 29 at the Horizon Credit Union Centre in Melvile. The winning Penny Barker rink will represent Saskatchewan at the 2017 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Canada's national women's curling championship.
Moose Jaw's Penny Barker won her first provincial women's title, sealing the victory after a hit for four points in the final, defeating North Battleford's Robyn Silvernagle. The Barker rink was ranked 7th going into the tournament, and only made the playoffs after winning a tiebreaker match. She then won three straight playoff games to claim the title. The 2017 Scotties Tournament of Hearts will be the first national championship for all four members of the Barker rink. The team is the first Moose Jaw-based team to win the provincial title since 1999.
Dayna Demers, third for the Silvernagle rink won the Marj Mitchell Award for sportsmanship and competitiveness.
