Lafayette Lands Mixed Doubles Curling Olympic Trials

USA Curling has awarded Lafayette, Colorado, the U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Mixed Doubles Curling. The event will be staged February 17–23, 2025, at Rock Creek Curling.

The location in the Denver metropolitan area will mark the first time the event will be held outside of Minnesota. The results of the event will determine the team that will represent Team USA at the 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympic Games, which marks the third Games to include the mixed doubles discipline.

“We are pleased to partner with Rock Creek Curling for the first curling Trials of the 2026 Games,” said Dean Gemmell, chief executive officer of USA Curling. “With top-notch ice, facilities and staff, Rock Creek will provide an ideal environment for all athletes to compete at the highest level.”

The winning team at the Trials will also represent the United States at the 2025 Mixed Doubles World Championship. If Team USA is not yet qualified for the Olympic Games after that championship, the Trials winner will also compete at the Olympic qualification event in the fall of 2025.
