Women to skip in Canadian mixed curling championships
At Canadian Curling Association meetings the rule banning women from skipping mixed teams was repealed enabling a woman to skip with men and women alternating in other positions. Six Hall of Fame inductees were announced including Hazel Jamieson. A $5 participants fee will be charged starting 1982-83 to cover a $75 000 budget shortfall. The association also clarified push broom sweeping rules to conform with international standards.
