2024 Atlantic University Sport Curling Championships

The 2024 Atlantic University Sport Curling Championships presented by Bell were held from February 8 to 11 at the Montague Curling Club in Montague, Prince Edward Island.[1] The top two men's and women's teams qualified for the 2024 U Sports/Curling Canada University Curling Championships in Fredericton, New Brunswick, hosted by the University of New Brunswick who received an automatic berth as the hosts. Because the UNB Reds women's team qualified for the final, a third-place game was held to determine the second qualifying team.
