The Return of the USA – January 2023

This website was constructed for the Scot’s tour to USA in 2017 but this page is set to provide information on the return tour being played out across 18 ice rinks in Scotland between 6th and 30th January 2023.

This return tour was scheduled to be held in January 2022 but in the interests of everyone’s health and the desire to have a proper curling and sociable experience, so central to the sport we all enjoy, the tour was deferred one year.

The Official 2022 USA Curling Scot Tour blog can be found at the following address:
